Dear Investor:

Thank you for your continued affiliation with The Penn Mutual Life Insurance Company. The confidence and trust you place in us reaffirms our commitment to helping policyholders take advantage of all life’s possibilities. We also take pride in being a financially strong mutual insurance company that delivers on our promises, and I’m very pleased to bring you the following capital markets summary. Please remember that regardless of what the markets may bring, short-term performance changes should not distract you from your long-term financial plan, and it’s a good idea to meet with your investment professional regularly to make sure that your asset allocation remains on target.

Stocks moved higher during the second quarter of 2014, adding to first-quarter gains and setting new highs in June. Equities rose despite the U.S. economy’s weather-driven contraction in the first quarter, geopolitical strains, worries about Europe’s economy and the Federal Reserve’s continued tapering of its asset purchases. Market volatility has remained very low and continues to fall in almost every major market. Falling volatility has increased risk appetites and has been a primary driver of the gains in the equity markets. From a sector perspective, Utilities, considered a defensive sector, had the strongest returns and more cyclical sectors such as Consumer Discretionary, Industrials, and Telecommunications experienced relatively weaker returns during the first half of the year. In this environment, the U.S. stock market, as measured by the Wilshire 5000 Equity Index, returned a solid 7.00 percent during the six month period ending June 30.

On a relative basis, mid and large capitalization stocks provided higher returns than did small capitalization stocks during the six month period ending June 30. Mid capitalization stocks, as measured by the Russell Midcap Index, returned 8.67 percent and large capitalization stocks, as measured by the Russell 1000 Index, returned 7.27 percent, while small capitalization stocks, as measured by the Russell 2000 Index, returned 3.19 percent. From a style perspective, value stocks performed in line with growth stocks in the large market capitalizations, while value stocks outperformed growth stocks in the small and mid capitalization ranges. Some of the relative outperformance within value stocks can be attributed to the relatively strong performance within the Utilities sector. Lastly, one of the best performing domestic equity asset classes for the first six months of the year was Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) as measured by the FTSE NAREIT Equity REIT Index’s return of 17.66 percent. REITs also have the distinct honor of having the best relative performance over the last five years with an annualized return of 23.52 percent.

International markets, both developed and emerging, ended the six month period slightly behind U.S. equities. Developed international stocks, as measured by the MSCI EAFE Index, returned 5.14 percent while emerging market stocks, as measured by the MSCI Emerging Markets Index, fared a bit better with a return of 6.32 percent. Emerging markets have rebounded quite nicely from their losses in 2013 as the improving U.S. economy, another round of stimulus in Europe, and signs of stabilization in China lifted confidence in the global economic outlook. While geopolitical concerns will continue to stay in the headlines creating potential risk, the market has remained resilient to date. Numerous key elections will take place in the second half of the year and are worth keeping a close eye on.

Investment-grade fixed income securities underperformed high yield bonds during the first six months of the year. Investment-grade bonds, as measured by the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Index, returned 3.93 percent and the Credit Suisse High Yield Bond Index returned 5.55 percent. Long maturity Treasury yields continued to fall during the second quarter following similar declines in the first quarter due to strong demand from foreign central banks and pension funds. The rally in Treasury bonds has been a surprise to many market participants as consensus forecasts were for Treasury yields to rise in 2014. This rally has helped most fixed income sectors generate strong returns. The Federal Reserve continued its policy of gradual tapering of its quantitative easing program that commenced at the start of the year. However, they also stressed that rates will remain low for a long period of time.

Once again, we thank you for the privilege of serving your financial needs and encourage you to work closely with your financial professional to continue to explore your options throughout all of life’s stages.

Sincerely,

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance

 

Limited Maturity Bond Fund

The Penn Series Limited Maturity Bond Fund returned 0.44% for the six-month period ending June 30, 2014, compared to the 0.56% return of its benchmark, the Barclays U.S. Government/Credit 1-3 year Bond Index.

In the current environment, the traditionally more conservative nature of the management of the Fund has proved to be a headwind to relative peer performance.

The U.S. economic news was mixed during the first six months of the year. Severe winter weather during the first quarter led to the weakest quarterly Gross Domestic Product (GDP) since the credit crisis. This weak first quarter growth appeared at odds with steadily improving employment statistics as the unemployment rate is nearing 6%. Investors have returned to the emerging markets after this year started with renewed fears of faltering economies and political unrest. Emerging market equity and debt investments have recovered and now are among the best performing asset classes during the first half of 2014. While heightened geopolitical concerns abated during the second quarter, tensions in Ukraine and the Middle East represent one of the primary risks to the current low volatility environment.

During the first half of the year, we started to gradually reposition the portfolio in order to increase the Fund’s yield. We added BBB industrial bonds in the healthcare, consumer non cyclical, energy and pipeline, and telecommunications sectors that we felt traded at attractive valuations. Domestic money center bank and brokerage firms were also selectively added due to underperformance versus similarly rated industrials throughout the year and their continued improvement in tier 1 capital ratios and overall asset quality. We also started positions in higher quality high yield companies that we view as potential cross over (into investment grade) situations. The high yield purchases were concentrated in companies with good business fundamentals, solid market positions and scale, moderately levered balance sheets, and a reasonable probability of a ratings upgrade over the next 2-3 years. On the higher quality side, we purchased AAA and AA CMBS securities which provided attractive spread with minimal risk.

We will continue to look for value added investment opportunities during this period of low interest rates and market volatility while maintaining a bias towards high credit quality and conservative duration risk.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance

 

Quality Bond Fund

The Penn Series Quality Bond Fund returned 3.53% for the six-month period ending June 30, 2014, compared to the 3.93% return of its benchmark, the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index.

Our bias towards higher quality holdings compared to the benchmark was the primary factor behind the relative underperformance for the first half of 2014.

The U.S. economic news was mixed during the first six months of the year. Severe winter weather during the first quarter led to the weakest quarterly Gross Domestic Product (GDP) since the credit crisis. This weak first quarter growth appeared at odds with steadily improving employment statistics as the unemployment rate is nearing 6%. Investors have returned to the emerging markets after this year started with renewed fears of faltering economies and political unrest. Emerging market equity and debt investments have recovered and now are among the best performing asset classes during the first half of 2014. While heightened geopolitical concerns abated during the second quarter, tensions in Ukraine and the Middle East represent one of the primary risks to the current low volatility environment.

The Quality Bond Fund has shifted its exposure to duration or interest rate risk in response to the unexpected decline in interest rates during the previous six months. We sold longer-term bonds during the second quarter and reduced the Fund’s duration to a level below its benchmark. While the Federal Reserve has continued to taper the amount of bond purchases every month, foreign central banks have been picking up the slack and buying U.S. Treasuries in response to historically low yields across many developed country bond markets. We believe interest rates in the U.S. will gradually rise for the remainder of the year in response to an improving outlook for the domestic economy.

During the second quarter, we reduced our exposure to Federal Agency mortgage-backed securities (MBS) and purchased ten year Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS). TIPS offer the opportunity for better returns in the increasingly likely event the Federal Open Market Committee’s (FOMC) easy monetary policy leads to inflationary pressures. The Fund has also increased its holdings of bonds at the front end of the yield curve with attractive return potential. Enhanced Equipment Trust Certificates (EETC), airline debt secured by aircraft, represents one of these opportunities.

During this period of low interest rates and volatility, we will continue to look for value added investment opportunities while maintaining our tilt towards high credit quality and a conservative duration risk profile.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance

 

High Yield Bond Fund

The Penn Series High Yield Bond Fund returned 5.38% for the six-month period ending June 30, 2014, compared to the 5.55% return of its benchmark, the Credit Suisse High Yield Bond Index.

The Fund underperformed the Credit Suisse High Yield Index during the six-month period, as credit selection was negative in the retail and utilities sectors. Conversely, solid credit selection in the media/telecom and energy sectors aided relative results during the period.

High yield bonds posted solid returns during the six-month period. The market performed well as fundamental tailwinds remained in place, including limited defaults, healthy earnings and free cash flow generation, and low financing costs. However, a recent isolated event led to an uptick in the overall default rate. High yield bonds are also enjoying a meaningful amount of technical support as the persistent search for yield continues to drive capital into the asset class. Strong technicals have pushed below investment-grade bond yields to historically low levels and stretched valuations to some extent. Returns were positive across all major industries and credit quality segments over the last six months, with higher-rated securities outperforming CCC rated securities.

Although year-to-date issuance is behind last year’s record-setting pace, a substantial pickup in merger and acquisition (M&A) financing helped narrow the difference. Underwriters continued to test the limits on new deal terms, keeping our investment team highly cautious and selective. On the other hand, issuers have generally allocated proceeds from recent debt offerings in a prudent manor, with a keen focus on interest expense and leverage.

As expected, Energy Future Holdings (formerly known as TXU) filed for Chapter 11 in April. J.P. Morgan’s par-weighted U.S. high yield bond default rate increased significantly from 0.61% to 2.15% in April as a result, but the market reaction was largely muted because this event was well telegraphed.

Negative credit selection in the retail sector was partly driven by our position in Gymboree, a children’s apparel retailer. This issuer has experienced weakness following a series of disappointing earnings reports and poor forward guidance. However, we eliminated this holding during the period because the company’s turnaround strategy was not gaining meaningful traction.

 

A combination of positive credit selection and an overweight allocation in the media/telecom sector aided relative results. We have skillfully positioned our portfolio to benefit from M&A activity in the broad media space. Many of the recent transactions have been strategic in nature and have included an equity/cash investment component, which is positive for bondholders.

We believe capital appreciation potential is limited for the remainder of this year, particularly in the U.S. where most bonds are trading at a premium to par value. Technical factors have pushed valuations to less compelling levels in certain segments of the market, namely higher-rated bonds. Nonetheless, increased strategic M&A activity as well as compelling stories in Europe and emerging markets are still providing us with ample active management opportunities.

Although valuations are somewhat stretched, underlying high yield fundamentals remain sound. Most issuers have focused on improving their balance sheets over the past several years rather than releveraging, taking advantage of abundant liquidity and low capital costs. Moreover, the limited amount of bond maturities over the next two years is highly supportive of the low-default environment.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance

 

Flexibly Managed Fund

The Penn Series Flexibly Managed Fund returned 6.94% for the six-month period ending June 30, 2014, compared to the 7.14% and 4.22% returns of its benchmarks, the S&P 500 Index and the Merrill Lynch Corporate/Government Index, respectively.

For the six-month period, the stock segment of the Fund outperformed the S&P 500 Index, while our fixed income holdings ended in line with the S&P 500 Index. Consumer Discretionary, health care, and utilities all boosted relative performance, while financials, industrial and business services, and energy detracted on a relative basis.

U.S. stocks rose in the second quarter of 2014, adding to first-quarter gains and lifting large-cap indexes to new all-time highs in June. Equities climbed amid signs that the economy was recovering from the economic contraction in the first quarter, which was driven in part by unusually harsh winter weather. Corporate merger and acquisition activity was also encouraging, as were signs that Russia wants to de-escalate tensions with Ukraine. Investors were undeterred by the Federal Reserve’s continued tapering of its asset purchases or by rising oil prices late in the quarter in response to a sharp increase in sectarian violence in Iraq. Domestic bonds produced moderate gains in the second quarter as longer-term Treasury yields declined, despite signs of rising inflation.

Our equity weight declined, as we believe that equity valuations are high relative to historical averages and are being driven by multiple expansion rather than earnings growth. Nevertheless, we found select buying opportunities in companies with defensive characteristics, adding to our holdings in energy, financials, and consumer discretionary, while trimming consumer staples and utilities. We also continued to maintain significant exposure to covered calls, which give us the benefits of owning a stock while providing downside protection. Our cash allocation increased as we trimmed our equity holdings on strength.

Our fixed income weight remained basically the same, as we found fewer attractive risk/reward opportunities. We trimmed our exposure to bank loans and mortgages, while increasing our weights in high-yield securities (currently our largest fixed income asset class) and U.S. Treasuries, as well as select high-quality corporate bonds. Declining spreads made bank loans less attractive, and newer issues do not always have the characteristics that initially attracted us to the asset class.

On a relative basis, consumer discretionary was a leading contributor due to stock choices, including AutoZone. In utilities, we benefited from our position in PG&E. Stock selection in both the financials and the industrials and business services sectors detracted.

After a year of nearly uninterrupted strength in the U.S. equity market, we are tempering our expectations for continued gains. The U.S. economy continued its pace of moderate growth over the past few years, but returns appear to have outpaced corporate fundamentals. We would therefore not be surprised to encounter a cyclical pullback in the near term.

Across asset classes, we are finding less compelling value in equities than we did a year ago. We continue to look for opportunities to add to equity positions on market pullbacks. Within fixed income, we took the opportunity to add to U.S. Treasuries along with higher-yielding securities as interest rates rose. With the considerable market advance, we positioned the portfolio defensively as a reflection of our commitment to capital preservation. As always, we remain focused on finding the best risk-adjusted opportunities across the various asset classes.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance

 

Balanced Fund

The Penn Series Balanced Fund returned 5.44% for the six-month period ending June 30, 2014, compared to the 7.14% and 3.93% returns of its benchmarks, the S&P 500 Index and the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, respectively.

The Balanced Fund is comprised of a target allocation of 60% to an equity fund and 40% to a fixed income fund. The equity allocation of the Fund is comprised of the Penn Series Index 500 Fund, which seeks a total return that corresponds to that of the S&P 500 Index. The fixed income allocation of the Fund consists of an allocation to the Penn Series Quality Bond Fund.

At the broad asset class level, the Balanced Fund’s equity allocation performed in line with its broad equity benchmark the S&P 500 Index for the year-to-date period. The Fund’s fixed income allocation slightly underperformed the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index for the year-to-date time period. Weighing on the fixed income allocation of the Fund was the more conservative composition of the underlying individual fixed income fund versus the broad market Index.

Large Growth Stock Fund

The Penn Series Large Growth Stock Fund returned 2.51% for the six-month period ending June 30, 2014, compared to the 6.31% return for its benchmark, the Russell 1000 Growth Index.

The Fund delivered positive returns for the six months of 2014 but lagged against the benchmark. Stock selection was the main reason for relative underperformance, but group weighting was also negative. Information technology, energy, and consumer discretionary were the largest relative detractors. Health care relatively outperformed.

Investors shook off negative factors affecting markets in the first half of 2014, and U.S. stocks recorded strong gains. Downside concerns included an unexpectedly sharp economic contraction in the first quarter and less accommodative monetary policy from the Federal Reserve. Investors looked past uncertainties and focused on the potential for renewed economic growth in the remainder of the year. Mid- and large-cap stocks outpaced small-cap shares by a wide margin during the period. According to Russell indexes, value stocks outperformed growth stocks across all market capitalizations, particularly among mid-cap shares.

Information technology was the leading relative detractor, due to stock selection. A combination of foreign-exchange headwinds and a slowing of cross-border volumes weighed on shares of global payments networks MasterCard and Visa. An underweight to Apple hurt relative performance. Shares were up sharply during the period as investors anticipated upcoming product cycles and were receptive to an increased buyback and dividend, as well as a 7-for-1 stock split. The iPhone 6 is expected to come out later this year, potentially driving a large upgrade cycle.

Energy underperformed due to stock selection and underweighting the strongest performer in the benchmark. Shares of Range Resources were up during the period but lagged the broader energy sector after missing earnings estimates due to lighter oil and natural gas production. We believe Range Resources is well positioned to benefit from rising natural gas production in the U.S., a strong management team, attractive acreage in the Marcellus Shale region, and a lower cost structure relative to peers.

Consumer discretionary detracted on significant overweighting of the worst performer in the Russell benchmark, more than offsetting favorable stock selection.

Health care was the leading outperformer, driven by stock selection. McKesson benefited from continued strength in generic drug pricing and closed its acquisition of pharmaceutical and health care product manufacturer Celesio AG, expanding its global footprint. The company also secured a generic drug distribution agreement with Rite Aid, the third-largest drug retailer in the United States. Shares of Vertex Pharmaceuticals soared on news that the company’s cystic fibrosis treatment met its primary endpoint in Phase III trials. The company now plans to submit for regulatory approval in both the U.S. and Europe. IDEXX Laboratories develops, manufactures, and distributes products and services for the animal veterinary, livestock and poultry, water testing, and dairy market industries. Increased demand for veterinary services and corresponding products in the period aided the firm.

The U.S. economy should grow modestly over the remainder of 2014, supported by diminished fiscal headwinds, improved labor markets, and healthier consumer finances. Overall, we believe the bull market that began five years ago has further room to run. Valuations appear reasonable from a historical perspective, and market performance should be in line with moderate improvements in corporate earnings growth.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance

 

Large Cap Growth Fund

The Penn Series Large Cap Growth Fund returned 4.58% for the six-month period ending June 30, 2014, compared to the 6.31% return for its benchmark, the Russell 1000 Growth Index.

Early in the period, markets were forced to contend with some unexpected weakness in the U.S. economy due largely to weather-related interruptions to hiring and spending plans and emerging market stresses due to imbalances and stagflationary conditions in certain emerging market countries. Equities and credit markets quickly found their footing and recovered all early-year declines, helped, in part, by the conclusion that there would be no major change in U.S. monetary policy as a result of the nomination of Janet Yellen as the new Fed Chair for a term beginning in early 2014.

Toward the middle of the period, political instability in the Ukraine briefly caused market jitters where tensions escalated following a change in government and Russia’s annexation of Crimea. Once again, the setback was short-lived as the economy regained its footing, helped in part by central bank stimulus, notably by the European Central Bank. Also, toward the end of the period, sectarian violence in Iraq and the potential threat to oil production and crude prices appeared to have become a modest concern for investors, but not enough to cause any meaningful pull-back in the equity markets as the broad U.S. equity indexes traded near their all-time highs by the end of the period.

Stock selection in the financial services sector detracted from performance relative to the Index. Overweight positions in weak performing global payments technologies companies MasterCard and Visa further hampered relative returns.

A combination of stock selection and underweight position in the technology sector dampened relative performance. An underweight position in computer and personal electronics maker Apple and not holding software giant Microsoft and social media site Facebook weighed on relative results as the companies posted solid returns during the period.

Elsewhere, the Fund’s overweight positions in outsourcing services provider Accenture, Media Company Discovery Communications, and dental products manufacturer Dentsply detracted from relative performance.

Additionally, holdings of consumer goods producer Procter & Gamble and not holding diversified energy products supplier Halliburton hurt.

Stock selection, and to a lesser extent, underweight allocation to the retailing sector contributed to relative performance. The Fund’s avoidance of poor-performing online retailer Amazon.com aided relative performance.

In other sectors, holdings of oilfield services provider Schlumberger, diversified electrical power management company Sensata Technologies, semiconductor manufacturer Taiwan Semiconductor, and overweight position in health care company Allergan supported positive performance. Holdings of strong-performing alcoholic beverage company Beam and overweight positions in nutrition company Mead Johnson Nutrition, Entertainment Company Walt Disney, and health care company Johnson & Johnson contributed to relative performance. Not holding airline company Boeing benefited relative performance as the stock underperformed the benchmark during the reporting period.

The Penn Series Large Core Growth Fund returned 2.96% for the six-month period ending June 30, 2014, compared to the 6.31% return for its benchmark, the Russell 1000 Growth Index.

Security selection within the industrial sector contributed to returns as our investment thesis surrounding the airline industry continues to be validated. Delta Air Lines and American Airlines gained approximately 41% and 34%, respectively, as traffic remained strong, pricing remained rational, and margins continued to improve. Furthermore, investors continued to gain confidence that these improvements will be more sustainable than many originally thought. Given the re-rating of the airlines, however, we are paying close attention to valuation. Lastly within industrials, our holding within United Rentals was a strong contributor. The company is well positioned to benefit from both a cyclical uptick in construction activity, as well as a secular shift towards renting, instead of purchasing, large scale equipment.

Driven by our holding in Constellation Brands, positioning in the consumer staples sector again proved additive to returns. The manufacturer and distributor of alcoholic beverages was among the Fund’s largest contributors last year and is an excellent example of a “developing situation” within our portfolio construction methodology. Constellation continues to enjoy multiple growth opportunities from both strategic acquisitions and organic operational improvements. The company continues to produce strong organic growth and our conviction in the position remains high.

Security selection within the consumer discretionary sector also detracted from returns. Despite reporting solid first quarter results, shares of aftermarket automotive parts distributor LKQ Corporation came under pressure. The main source of weakness was the publication of an industry report questioning the sustainability of the company’s growth rate and acquisition accounting practices. We conducted our own evaluation of the company which gave us confidence that the issues raised were not valid. We maintained our belief that the company is well positioned to grow in both domestic and international markets. Our conviction is driven by the company’s sophisticated operating systems that should continue to bring technological relevance to the auto repair space. Additionally within the sector, traditional retailers suffered from a mix of both weather related

weakness and company specific concerns. Shares of consumer electronics retailer Best Buy declined when holiday sales proved to be weaker than expected given a highly promotional environment. We owned Best Buy as a developing situation, expecting new management’s supply chain improvements to lead to improving margins. While this played out the second half of 2013, the highly promotional holiday pricing and declining store traffic from online competition proved to be too much to overcome. With the operational improvement thesis now being overshadowed by the headwinds of the increasingly competitive environment, we sold our position in the stock.

Among financial holdings, Intercontinental Exchange experienced weakness as lower-than-expected trading volumes driven by falling market volatility and interest rates pressured results. In addition, investor confusion regarding the divestiture of an ancillary business and the near-term impact on earnings estimates weighed on the stock. We view these as transitory issues and believe the company continues to execute well. Intercontinental Exchange should benefit from significant merger synergies, balance sheet restructuring, and a recovery in trading volumes in the coming months. Another financial stock that detracted from performance during the quarter was Affiliated Managers Group. Despite solid financial performance and an increased growth outlook from management, the investment management company declined as investor uncertainty rose amidst a number of geopolitical events. AMG remains well positioned with best in class asset flows and ample opportunity for additional accretive acquisitions and we maintain conviction in the stock.

Large Cap Value Fund

The Penn Series Large Cap Value Fund returned 6.71% for the six-month period ending June 30, 2014, compared to the 8.28% return for its benchmark, the Russell 1000 Value Index.

Stock selection in the information technology sector, which lagged mostly due to weak performance from AOL Inc and Motorola Solutions, was the primary reason for the underperformance. Strong stock selection in the healthcare and energy sectors offset some of the returns.

The main individual detractors from performance included AOL, State Street Corporation and Citigroup. AOL, a web services company, reported poor earnings driven by higher-than-expected costs. This was the cause of AOL’s underperformance, as both traffic acquisition costs and marketing activities to boost search queries weighed on the company’s margins. State Street, an institutional financial services company, has languished due to falling interest rates and general lackluster trading activity across markets over the time period. Citigroup, a diversified financial service holding company, also underperformed, as they failed to pass the Federal Reserve’s (the Fed’s) stress test in late March.

The individual holdings that contributed most to overall performance were Forest Laboratories, Covidien and Wells Fargo & Company. Medtronic’s offer to purchase Covidien, a medical equipment company, for a combination of cash and stock led to a revaluation in the shares. Forest Laboratories, a pharmaceutical company, was our best performing stock in the Fund. As a result of Forest Laboratories’ strong balance sheet and decent pipeline, they agreed to be acquired by Actavis Plc. Wells Fargo, a diversified financial services company, outperformed due to better-than-expected results and higher-than-anticipated capital return (dividend & buyback) announced with stress test results late in the first quarter.

Year-to-date we made a few changes to the Fund. Most recently, we started two new positions in Symantec, an infrastructure software company, and Ingersoll Rand, a diversified global equipment company. A multi-year laggard prior to our purchase, we believe Symantec is an inexpensive stock that has multiple pathways to revalue higher. We believe that as a new management team is established, disruption from the firm’s massive sales force changes start to ebb, and their new products roll-out, that the company’s financial performance should begin to improve. In our view, Ingersoll-Rand is positioned to grow

sales and margins as economic trends continue to strengthen.

As we enter the third quarter, the equity markets continue their upward drift. Much of the financial press has been discussing the likely rebound in gross domestic product (GDP) in the third quarter versus the severe weather impacted second quarter, which posted -2.9% GDP growth. In addition, employment continues to slowly improve printing 6.1% unemployment in the latest report, the lowest it has been since 2008. As the economy shows signs of picking up, there are increased discussions of inflation and a rise in interest rates. We believe it is not a matter of “if” but “when” rates will rise. The stronger the economy, the more likely the Fed will continue to diminish its bond buying, thus allowing rates to rise.

While we never like to lag our benchmark in any time period, we feel very comfortable with our holdings and how the Fund is positioned. We do not view equity markets as overvalued, particularly when compared to the level of interest rates and other asset classes. We do believe that geopolitical issues and other worries will continue to create periods of angst. It is these times that can create good investment opportunities for the long term, and we will continue to take advantage of these opportunities.

Large Core Value Fund

The Penn Series Large Core Value Fund returned 8.30% for the six-month period ending June 30, 2014, compared to the 8.28% return for its benchmark, the Russell 1000 Value Index.

Major world equity markets advanced over the first six months of 2014, supported by continued low interest rates, which has created ample liquidity, and some signs of global economic improvement. In the U.S., a gradually strengthening economy along with the Federal Reserve’s (the Fed) renewed commitment to low interest rates helped drive key equity indexes to multiple record highs during the period. For the most part, investors shrugged off the first quarter economic contraction, which was largely blamed on harsh winter weather, and drew confidence from several economic reports, including further labor and housing market gains, rising industrial production and stronger auto sales.

In mid-March, as expected, the Fed continued to “taper” its monthly bond buying stimulus program. Yet, new Fed chair Janet Yellen helped to unnerve markets with her comments regarding the Fed’s timetable for raising short-term interest rates, which some investors interpreted as signaling higher rates sooner than previously thought. A few weeks later, Ms. Yellen helped give stocks a boost with a speech reaffirming the Fed’s commitment to supporting the economy. In June, the outbreak of hostilities in Iraq sent stocks lower, but investors returned to equities a few days later after the Fed reiterated its pledge to maintain low interest rates and downplayed inflation fears. The major indexes quickly rebounded, with some reaching new highs, before falling back in the final week of the period.

Outperformance of lower quality stocks versus higher quality stocks presented a headwind to relative results, but was offset by the Fund’s strong stock selection results during the period. Overall, sector allocation had a slightly negative impact on the Fund’s relative performance.

The best performing Index sectors were utilities, information technology, and health care, while consumer staples, consumer discretionary, and industrials were the weakest-performing sectors. Within both the Index and the Fund, all 10 economic sectors delivered positive returns for the period.

In energy, overweight positions in independent exploration and production firms ConocoPhillips and Anadarko Petroleum benefited relative performance. Exposure to two takeover targets in the health care sector,

Shire and Covidien, aided relative performance. Other strong performing individual stocks included chemical company LyondellBasell Industries and Delta Air Lines.

In financials, overweight positions in financial services giants Citigroup and Bank America represented a drag on relative performance. Elsewhere, the Fund’s holding in Boeing, off-discount clothing retailer TJX, and electronic security provider ADT were among the largest detracting stocks during the period. From a sector allocation perspective, the Fund’s modest underweight to the strong-performing utilities sector detracted.

The Fed’s continued accommodative stance, the prospect of gradual economic improvement and many investors’ seeming willingness to buy stocks on short-term pullbacks have raised expectations for modest equity market gains in the coming months. However, investors will be keeping a close eye on equity valuations going forward, especially after Fed Chair Janet Yellen cautioned that elevated stock prices and low volatility may indicate excessive investor complacency. Along with valuation levels, investors will also be monitoring stocks’ reaction if second quarter corporate profits disappoint, or if U.S. inflation continues to edge higher and leads the Fed to signal a possible change in policy.

From a sector positioning perspective, the Fund held modest overweight exposures to energy and health care and slight underweights to utilities and consumer staples as of the end of the period.

Index 500 Fund

The Penn Series Index 500 Fund returned 6.95% for the six-month period ending June 30, 2014, compared to the 7.14% return for its benchmark, the S&P 500 Index.

A disappointing January brought a number of chillier reports on global economic activity, and the first month of 2014 ended with U.S. stocks hesitating near two-month lows. A weak manufacturing reading in early February served to unnerve investors further, driving averages of larger U.S. equities to the worst levels since late October. But Janet Yellen, newly installed head of the U.S. Federal Reserve, came across as thoroughgoing and confident in her first opportunity to provide formal testimony before Congress. With policy continuity assured, investors used the remainder of February to lift the S&P 500® back up and over the record levels at which it had traded near the end of 2013.

After demonstrating resilient outperformance since mid-summer of 2013, growth-oriented portfolios finally ran into serious resistance during March of 2014. Uncertainty about economic prospects was hardly the culprit, as the Federal Reserve felt confident enough in its outlook to expect a slightly sooner arrival of its first rate hike. Rather, the brilliant market successes of social media, cloud computing, internet security, and advanced medical technology seem to have attracted too much equity supply, either in the form of new offerings from untested companies or of insider selling from firms already public. As momentum-oriented players recognized the imbalance, the last two weeks of March saw growth benchmarks give back roughly six months of leadership relative to value indexes.

During the first quarter of 2014, when economic activity often disappoints expectations, choppy equities and lower bond yields produced sector performance in the S&P 500 that featured reversals in some of the leading themes from 2013. Consumer discretionary, the top performer in 2013, became the weakest in early 2014, losing 2.8% for both March and the first quarter as a whole. A number of well-known retail names endured double-digit declines. The health care sector, also big in 2013, gave back 1.3% in March. Still, health care climbed 5.8% for the full first quarter, keeping the sector in second place on a year-to-date basis. One key winner was Forest Labs, whose shares climbed by more than 50% on a takeover bid from generic drug maker Actavis.

 

After discretionary and health care, the other eight S&P sectors scored positive returns in March, as well as for the first quarter as a whole. Utilities were the sleeper, gaining 3.4% in March and 10.1% since the start of 2014, as the surprising drop in bond yields renewed interest in these notable 2013 laggards. Another source of ample dividends, telecommunications services, led the way in March with a 4.8% advance, but that only brought its year-to-date result to a thin 0.5%. Financials added 3.2% in March as rising intermediate yields lent credence to an eventual hike in interest rates, and the sector’s first-quarter gain of 2.6% was fourth place out of ten. In third place was the materials sector, which used an in-line March result to gain 2.9% for the full first quarter, as several chemical names posted double-digit three-month gains. The energy and industrials sectors were slight outperformers in March, but laggards for the full quarter, and the same was true of consumer staples, which rebounded smartly in March from early 2014 losses. On the flip side was information technology, which only eked out a 0.3% March advance, but remains slightly ahead of the S&P on a year-to-date basis.

Mid Cap Growth Fund

The Penn Series Mid Cap Growth Fund returned 5.22% for the six-month period ending June 30, 2014, compared to the 6.51% return for its benchmark, the Russell Midcap Growth Index.

Overall stock selection contributed strongly to relative performance during the first quarter, with selections within the technology and consumer staples sectors contributing the most to the Fund’s overall outperformance. Detractions to relative returns in the first quarter were small in amplitude and were from a diverse swatch of holdings within the financial services, consumer discretionary, and utilities sectors.

The single largest contributor to the Fund for the first quarter was Beam Inc. The company is a premium spirits brand in the consumer staples sector. Beam Inc. received a bid to be acquired by Suntory Holdings Limited at a 25% premium in the middle of January. After detracting in the fourth quarter, multi-core processing semiconductor company Cavium contributed nicely this quarter. NXP Semiconductors in the technology sector was the second largest contributor for the quarter. Within the consumer discretionary sector, Delta Air Lines, and Kate Spade provided positive contributions. Delta Air Lines, up 26% for the quarter, benefited from increased revenue as leisure travel was strong during the holiday season. Kate Spade, formerly the specialty retailer Fifth & Pacific, continued its outperformance from the fourth quarter and rose another 16% in the first quarter.

Stock selection in financial services hindered performance during the first quarter in relative and absolute terms although the magnitude was not great. After a double digit return in the fourth quarter IntercontinentalExchange Group, a leading operator of regulated exchanges and clearing houses, pulled back and was the largest detractor to the Fund.

The commentary provided above was from the former sub-adviser of the Fund, Turner Investments, who was the manager of the Fund until May 1, 2014.

During the second quarter, most sectors performed relatively in line with the Index, with four of the ten economic sectors outperforming the Index overall during the period. The four sectors, listed in order of performance, were telecommunications services, information technology, health care, and energy. The underperforming sectors during the period, listed in order of underperformance, were utilities, financials, industrials, consumer discretionary, materials, and consumer staples.

The Fund was overweight the information technology, industrials, and health care sectors during the investment time period. We were slightly underweight the energy, financials, and consumer discretionary sectors and more decidedly underweight the materials, consumer staples, telecommunication services, and utilities sectors.

Good performance for the Fund in information technology equities was offset by weak performance in our consumer discretionary equities. The Fund saw considerable strength in many technology names, including Electronic Arts, Open Table, which received a buyout offer from Priceline in the period, Pandora and Fusion-IO, which received a buyout offer from SanDisk in the period. Our consumer discretionary equities were generally weak, as many stocks struggled in response to concerns about the impact of the protracted winter on consumer demand. The stocks that struggled during the period were LKQ, DSW, Urban Outfitters and Carter’s. We think the performance of many of these stocks could improve as the weather issues have subsided and an improving job market begins to bolster consumption.

Slight underperformance in the materials sector was also a detractor in performance. We do not have exposure to paper, packaging, and chemicals sub-sectors, which produced solid returns during the period. The one stock we own in the group, Scotts Miracle-Gro, was yet another victim to extreme weather during a time of year when their business is very sensitive to weather trends.

The energy sector was another area of relative weakness in the period as the market became concerned about the infrastructure bottlenecks in natural gas take-away capacity of some of the newer shale gas production areas. This development caused some pressure on our natural gas exploration and production companies, Cabot Oil & Gas and Southwestern Energy Company.

We outperformed in the health care sector during the period. Strength in that sector was broad-based with most of our equities outperforming both the sector and the index overall. Our best performing stocks in that sector were Medivation, Humana, and Intuitive Surgical.

The commentary provided above was from the current sub-adviser of the Fund, Ivy Investment Management, who became the manager of the Fund on May 1, 2014.

Mid Cap Value Fund

The Penn Series Mid Cap Value Fund returned 8.27% for the six-month period ending June 30, 2014, compared to the 11.14% return for its benchmark, the Russell Micap Value Index.

After a 2.9% drop in first quarter gross domestic product (GDP), which many attribute to extreme winter weather, economic growth while sluggish seems to be accelerating. Many key economic indicators including business and consumer confidence, payroll employment gains, auto sales, and the Purchasing Managers Index have shown improvement. Most central banks, including the Federal Reserve (despite tapering), continue to be accommodative. This easy money policy has been the primary driver of stock and bond rallies and will hopefully translate into a self-sustaining recovery.

Perhaps the biggest surprise was the increase in bond prices in the second quarter with the 10-year treasury yield declining from 2.76% at the end of the first quarter to 2.51%. The decline in yields resulted in interest sensitive sectors such as utilities and financial services performing particularly well. The Fund’s underweight in these areas detracted considerably from relative performance. REITs, an area where the Fund has very few holdings, appreciated more than 15% year to date.

In general, stocks within the Fund performed well with positive reactions to both improved earnings and restructuring announcements. Corporate balance sheets remain liquid and managements have returned meaningful amounts of cash to shareholders through share repurchases and dividend increases. Merger and acquisition activity accelerated and this also created a tailwind for our portfolio companies. Ashland announced the sale of its water technologies business, Hertz announced the spin-off of its equipment rental business and Safeway agreed to be acquired by Cerebus Capital at a substantial premium. The Fund benefited from better than expected earnings in Skyworks, Flextronics and General Dynamics. Office Depot announced an increase in synergies from its recent merger with OfficeMax and Avis Budget continued to forecast better than expected earnings. Covanta substantially increased its dividend and announced a major cost reduction program.

Stocks that missed earnings projections were punished in the marketplace. Staples, ADT, Best Buy, Teradata, Bed Bath and Beyond and Darden, declined meaningfully. Towards the end of the second quarter, several portfolio companies pre-announced disappointing earnings. Elizabeth Arden’s licensed perfume business is faring

poorly and KBR continues to struggle with inadequately priced contracts. Express, which declined in the first quarter after a sizeable earnings miss, received an acquisition proposal from private equity firm Sycamore Partners at what could be a significant premium. Spirit AeroSystems, which also missed earnings in the first quarter, is now capitalizing on the growing commercial aerospace market and has recouped much of its losses.

Despite the multi-year bull market that has boosted equities to above average valuations we believe that stocks can move even higher during the second half of the year. The Fed remains accommodative despite signs of increased inflation and investors should continue to favor equities. While our portfolio of stocks is not nearly as cheap as it was in 2009, we are still identifying companies we believe are selling at meaningful discounts to our intrinsic value estimates and generating strong free cash flow. Given increased merger and acquisition and activist activity, we expect more of our portfolio companies to engage in value creating events this year. Despite our somewhat bullish position, we are cognizant of the huge amount of liquidity created by monetary authorities over the last five plus years and its positive impact on equity markets. We believe, at some point (when inflation accelerates) this will have to be reversed and could put pressure on stocks.

Mid Core Value Fund

The Penn Series Mid Core Value Fund returned 10.11% for the six-month period ending June 30, 2014, compared to the 11.14% return for its benchmark, the Russell Midcap Value Index.

U.S. stocks recorded positive returns during the first six months of 2014. When the period began in January, yield-oriented securities, including utilities and REITs, rallied as the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield declined. Late in the first quarter, there was a reversal in the performance of stocks, and value stocks surged.

Although the Fund benefited from an underweight in financials, one of the weaker-performing sectors in the benchmark, it was held back by security selection. More specifically, the Fund’s significant underweight in REITs dampened results, as the REIT industry posted gains in the benchmark. REITs have been the beneficiaries of low interest rates, which have allowed them to reduce their debt costs. The Fund has been underweight REITs for some time because the team considers them generally overvalued.

Security selection in consumer discretionary was a drag on relative performance. The sector provided three key detractors — home improvement retailer Lowe’s Companies, retail chain Target, and luxury leather goods company Coach. Unusually bad weather hurt Lowe’s same-store sales during the first quarter. Target’s stock price fell after the retailer unexpectedly announced its CEO’s departure. The management change could be positive, in the team’s opinion, as Target works to move past the data breach of last winter and the challenges of its expansion into Canada. Some of Coach’s products have been off trend, leading to a decline in sales.

In industrials, an overweight in ADT hampered relative performance. The security monitoring company experienced an increase in subscriber-acquisition costs and associated lower-than-expected account growth as a result of competitors’ aggressive tactics, a situation the team considered largely transitory. Indeed, near the end of the period, ADT’s stock rallied on reduced concern over competitive threats. Also within industrials, an overweight in Koninklijke Philips detracted from results after management announced some near-term earnings drags, including foreign exchange, slower orders from China, a delay in cost savings to the second half of 2014, and disruptions at a U.S. production facility. The team believes

these issues are transitory and continues to favor the name.

In information technology, security selection added to relative results. In particular, the Fund benefited from its holdings in the semiconductor and semiconductor equipment industry. An investment in Applied Materials enhanced performance. The semiconductor maker is expected to see strong profit margin improvement and earnings growth as a result of its acquisition of Tokyo Electron.

Stock selection in the consumer staples sector, especially in the food products industry, contributed positively. The Fund benefited from its investment in Hillshire Brands, which appreciated as Tyson Foods and Pilgrim’s Pride competed to acquire the food maker. Ultimately, Hillshire announced it was being acquired by Tyson Foods.

In energy, the Fund benefited from its overweight in the oil, gas, and consumable fuels industry. An overweight in integrated energy company Imperial Oil added to results, as did investments in Apache and Devon Energy, both oil and gas exploration and production companies. All three stocks performed well as oil prices increased in response to renewed unrest in the Middle East. Imperial Oil also announced it was nearing the end of its capital expenditures for the Kearl oil sands project.

As of June 30, 2014, the team saw attractive opportunities in industrials, consumer staples, health care, utilities, energy, and telecommunication services, as reflected by the Fund’s overweights in these sectors. Conversely, smaller relative weightings were given to financials, consumer discretionary, materials, and information technology stocks.

SMID Cap Growth Fund

The Penn Series SMID Cap Growth Fund returned –1.02% for the six-month period ending June 30, 2014, compared to the 3.97% return for its benchmark, the Russell 2500 Growth Index.

No sector was more impacted by the market rotation than information technology. The sector is home to some of the most significant innovation in the U.S. economy. With this innovation, however, comes premium valuation multiples that were hardest hit in March and April. Of particular challenge were holdings in the internet software and services space, where our position in Channeladvisor came under pressure. Channeladvisor works with small businesses to aggregate products on multiple online channels. The company beat guidance on all metrics, including strong customer additions. However, shares declined as stocks with high valuations sold off heavily during April. Guidewire Software, which sells software to the insurance industry under a subscription model, also came under pressure during the quarter. Despite reporting a strong quarter and raising guidance, the shares sold off over 17%. We continue to believe the company has strong prospects as new software platforms are developed, property and casualty insurers face competition to provide mobile platforms, and customers will likely seek Guidewire’s expertise in pricing and data analytics. Therefore we opportunistically added to the position.

Stock selection within industrials weighed on returns. Shares of industrial rail road company Kansas City Southern declined after the company’s first quarter results fell short of expectations. The company’s rail network is strategically positioned to participate in increasing trade between the U.S. and Mexico. However, regulatory concerns mandating open access on Mexican rail lines with public pricing transparency arose, which threatened KSU’s exclusivity agreements within the country. This led to a sell-off in the shares and a compromise to our investment thesis. As is consistent with our process, the increased uncertainty led us to sell our position in favor of better ideas.

Over the last several quarters, accelerated spending and demand for durable goods has been an area of emphasis within our consumer discretionary holdings. This strategy proved additive to returns during the quarter as Restoration Hardware Holdings gained over 38%. This retailer of higher-end home furnishings is seeing the benefits of a meaningful change in strategy. The company has moved from smaller, mall-based stores to significantly

larger “design centers” that are capable of displaying much more of the firm’s inventory. These new initiatives had a positive impact on results as the company reported quarterly sales and earnings well above consensus estimates.

Another example of strong demand for consumer durables was visible in the performance of Lithia Motors which posted a return of just over 36%. Lithia, an automotive retailer, has experienced strong demand and recently made a highly accretive acquisition that will expand their geographical footprint. Lithia should continue to gain share in the highly fragmented auto industry and benefit from improving auto repair trends; a business that carries significant incremental margins.

Our position in telecommunication services, though small, provided strong contributions during the quarter. Shares of SBA Communications, a wireless tower company, gained over 13% after the company reported better-than-expected revenue and earnings. SBA’s growth continues to be driven by the capital spending required to support the growth in mobile data traffic.

We continue to maintain an earnings growth rate significantly above benchmarks and to target companies that can “make their own luck.” We have high conviction in several themes including internet spending, mobile/wireless spending, biopharmaceuticals, aerospace, transportation, and bank lending growth. We believe this game plan will eventually yield the type of results we all expect.

SMID Cap Value Fund

The Penn Series SMID Cap Value Fund returned 8.46% for the six-month period ending June 30, 2014, compared to the 7.87% return for its benchmark, the Russell 2500 Value Index.

In the second quarter of 2014 investors grappled with geopolitical turmoil in the Ukraine and the Middle East, as well as the lingering impact of a brutal winter on U.S. businesses. In the end, the resilience of the US economic recovery won out and equity markets rose in the quarter.

During the first half of 2014, the Fund rose in absolute terms and outperformed its benchmark, the Russell 2500 Value Index. The outperformance was driven by strong stock selection, particularly in the technology and financial sectors. Stock selection in the industrial resources sector and an underweight position in utilities detracted from performance.

Leading individual contributors included Electronic Arts, Health Net, CDW, Stone Energy and Con-way. Health Net missed its first quarter 2014 results but saw improved medical costs and maintained its full year earnings guidance.

Leading individual detractors included First Niagara Financial, The Children’s Place, Meritage Homes, Commercial Metals and Susquehanna Bancshares. First Niagara Financial, a regional bank, was affected by investor uncertainty about the potential returns from its new strategic plan.

Macro concerns have influenced investor behavior over the past few years. While the U.S. economy has been gradually healing after the worst financial crisis in recent memory, investor uncertainty continues to weigh on the equity markets.

In this environment, we believe the most compelling opportunities share a common set of characteristics. These include strong free cash flow, attractive valuations and company specific catalysts that can drive further cash earnings growth. We believe that stocks fitting this description have a wide variety of ways to create shareholder value and are less tied to the success of the economic recovery.

Small Cap Growth Fund

The Penn Series Small Cap Growth Fund returned 2.20% for the six-month period ending June 30, 2014, compared to the 2.22% return for its benchmark, the Russell 2000 Growth Index.

For much of the past year, we have warned that many cloud computing, social media and biotech stocks traded at extremely high valuations, driven largely by momentum and excitement around these industries, rather than underlying fundamentals. We selectively own a few of these companies we feel have the potential to justify such high valuations, but have largely avoided those pockets of the market. Many of the momentum-driven stocks have yet to produce positive earnings, and we believe they would need truly exceptional multiyear revenue growth to meet expectations implied in their current lofty valuations. Investing in companies with such high valuations, and less proven or durable track records, typically does not fit our investment process.

Instead, we favor companies that we believe have a much steadier growth profile. As part of our investment process, we focus on identifying companies we believe have long-duration growth potential, but that also have higher-quality business models with more predictable, growing revenue streams. These companies often have sustainable competitive advantages such as high barriers to entry in their respective industry, or a differentiated product or service that gives them pricing power, which should in turn help the company grow in a variety of economic environments.

Looking at performance across different sectors, stock selection in the consumer discretionary and technology sectors were the largest detractors from relative performance. Our stock selection in the energy and industrials sectors were the largest contributors to relative results.

Wolverine Worldwide was our largest detractor. The company owns a number of shoe brands, and in our view it has a proven track record of acquiring and improving management of those brands, then increasing sales as Wolverine pushes those brands through its global distribution network. The stock fell in the first quarter due to concern about a slowdown in its Sperry shoe brand, but sales were being compared to a period of extremely high sales growth the year before. We think Sperry has many elements similar to many other American lifestyle brands that have gained traction internationally, and as such, the

brand will be a key beneficiary of Wolverine’s global distribution network.

Hibbett Sports was another large detractor. The company is a sporting goods retailer specializing in footwear, equipment and apparel. Hibbett announced it will have to make some investments to develop a stronger e-commerce strategy. Those investments could constrain margins in the near term, which has weighed on the stock, but we continue to like the long-term outlook for the company.

Athlon Energy was our largest contributor to performance, and one of several companies in the energy sector that performed well during the period. We participated in the exploration and production company’s IPO a few months back because we liked the potential of its consolidated acreage in the West Texas Permian Basin. The stock was up significantly during the period due to positive well results announced by Athlon and a rise in oil prices during the second quarter.

Top contributor outside the energy sector was Measurement Specialties. The company creates sensors that serve a wide range of end markets including automobiles, commercial vehicles, and industrial and medical equipment. We believe the sensor industry has a long runway for growth as sensor content continues to increase across most industries. We also like that sensors are typically a mission-critical item but represent a small percentage of the total bill of goods of the products they are used in.

Small Cap Value Fund

The Penn Series Small Cap Value Fund returned 5.73% for the six-month period ending June 30, 2014, compared to the 4.20% return for its benchmark, the Russell 2000 Value Index.

During the first quarter, within the financials sector, Bank of the Ozarks was a top contributor to returns. In January, the bank reported fourth quarter earnings that exceeded consensus expectations, supported by impressive revenue and loan growth. Separately, at the end of January, its shares rose following the announcement that Bank of the Ozarks would acquire Arkansas-based Summit Bancorp. Investors reacted positively to this announcement as the deal will likely bolster Bank of the Ozarks’ market share.

Information Technology holding, TriQuint Semiconductor, was also a top contributor to Fund performance in the first quarter. Shares of TriQuint Semiconductor, a manufacturer of radio-frequency semiconductor chips, rallied after the company announced that it had entered into a merger agreement with RF Micro Devices. The all-stock transaction will create a new company with the potential to be a significant competitor in the radio-frequency solutions space.

Rex Energy, an exploration and production company focused on oil and natural gas, was a top detractor during the first quarter. In February, shares of Rex Energy declined as investors were disappointed by the company’s first quarter production guidance. Despite near-term weakness, we continue to believe that Rex Energy is well positioned over the longer term in areas that could experience significant production growth. Within the consumer discretionary sector, GNC Holdings was a top detractor from performance. Shares of GNC, a leading retailer of health and nutrition related products, traded lower after the company announced both fourth quarter earnings and 2014 guidance below consensus expectations. Consistent with much of the retail industry, inclement winter weather led GNC to increase its promotional spending, which then weighed on the company’s margins.

During the second quarter, within the consumer staples sector, Susser Holdings, a convenience-store operator based in Texas, was a top contributor to returns. In late April, its shares rose sharply after Energy Transfer Partners, which owns and operates a diverse portfolio of energy assets, announced plans to acquire Susser Holdings at a significant premium. In our view, the transaction is

attractive from Energy Transfer Partners’ perspective, as it has the potential to both increase the valuation of its current convenience-store operations, while meaningfully expanding the company’s retail presence in areas of Texas experiencing strong economic growth. Materials holding, PolyOne, was also a top contributor to Fund performance as shares of the provider of specialized polymer materials, rose gradually throughout the second quarter as investors were encouraged by better-than-expected first quarter results.

Within the consumer discretionary sector and at the overall Fund level, GNC Holdings was a top detractor from returns in the second quarter. Shares of GNC, traded lower as investors were disappointed by lower-than-expected first quarter revenue and earnings, as well as the company’s reduction of its 2014 earnings-per-share guidance. Management cited inclement winter weather, an unusually significant amount of negative media and year-over-year sales hurdles in the company’s diet and pre-workout categories as contributing factors to the challenged results. In our view, GNC will be able to overcome these transient issues as the company’s comparable same-store sales have the potential to reaccelerate in the second half of the year. Dynegy, an electric utility company that owns and operates power plants fueled by natural gas and coal, was also a top detractor from performance. Despite a recent rally, we believe that shares have the potential for further gains supported by what we view as strengthening fundamentals in the competitive power market.

Small Cap Index Fund

The Penn Series Small Cap Index Fund returned 2.84% for the six-month period ending June 30, 2014, compared to the 3.19% return for its benchmark, the Russell 2000 Index.

A disappointing January brought a number of chillier reports on global economic activity, and the first month of 2014 ended with U.S. stocks hesitating near two-month lows. A weak manufacturing reading in early February served to unnerve investors further, driving averages of larger U.S. equities to the worst levels since late October. But Janet Yellen, newly installed head of the U.S. Federal Reserve, came across as thoroughgoing and confident in her first opportunity to provide formal testimony before Congress.

Smaller stocks snapped back smartly when January jitters found ready relief from new leadership at the Federal Reserve, and they enjoyed a fruitful February indeed. But small caps eventually fell victim to a newfound distaste for overly aggressive investment themes. After hitting multi-decade highs relative to larger stocks in early March, shares in smaller firms saw their momentum begin to wane, and when popular growth names ran into concerted selling in the last two weeks of the first quarter, underperformance of small caps became more obvious. The Russell 2000® Index conceded 0.7% during March, paring its first-quarter gain back to 1.1%, and leaving it 70 basis points behind the S&P 500 on a year-to-date basis. Stocks in the middle tier held up better during the market palpitations of March, and the S&P Midcap 400 IndexTM tacked on 0.4% in the final month of the first quarter. Even though the S&P 400 lagged its senior counterpart in March, its 3.0% return for the full quarter represented solid leadership for early 2014.

After demonstrating resilient outperformance since mid-summer of 2013, growth-oriented portfolios finally ran into serious resistance during March of 2014. Uncertainty about economic prospects was hardly the culprit, as the Federal Reserve felt confident enough in its outlook to expect a slightly sooner arrival of its first rate hike. Rather, the brilliant market successes of social media, cloud computing, internet security, and advanced medical technology seem to have attracted too much equity supply, either in the form of new offerings from untested companies or of insider selling from firms already public. As momentum-oriented players recognized the imbalance, the last two weeks of March saw growth benchmarks give back roughly six months of leadership relative to value

indexes. On the large cap side, the Russell 1000® Value Index gained 2.4% in March, but the Russell 1000® Growth Index declined by 1.0%. Russell 1000 Growth retained a positive 1.1% return for the first quarter, but Russell 1000 Value has established a clear lead with its 3.0% gain since the start of the year. As for small caps, while the Russell 2000® Value Index added 1.2% for March, the Russell 2000® Growth Index tumbled 2.5%, lagging by 370 basis points on the month. Russell 2000 Growth nonetheless retained a 0.5% gain for the full first quarter, but Russell 2000 Value did even better with a three-month advance of 1.8%.

Developed International Index Fund

The Penn Series Developed International Index Fund returned 4.72% for the six-month period ending June 30, 2014, compared to the 5.14% return for its benchmark, the MSCI EAFE Index.

On a regional basis, MSCI Europe continued to outpace MSCI Pacific during the first quarter. While MSCI Pacific used strength in Australia and New Zealand assets to eke out a 0.1% gain for March, their resilience was insufficient to prevent the regional benchmark from ceding 2.5% for the first quarter as a whole. MSCI Hong Kong had a poor start to 2014, with weak consumer and financial stocks contributing to a 2.2% loss for March and a 3.4% decline for the quarter. The latter result was the second worst among EAFE constituents. MSCI Singapore managed a solid 2.6% rebound in March, but still ended the first quarter with a 0.9% decline, as financial names had a particularly rough January. Even though MSCI Japan limited its March decline to 1.3%, disappointment with a lack of progress on structural reforms left the index with a 5.6% loss for the full first quarter, making it the worst performer within EAFE. With the yen appreciating solidly in early 2014, investors wanted to see expanded action from the Bank of Japan to offset the higher consumption taxes due to take effect in April, but by the end of the quarter, it was not clear that additional easing would even arrive before May. In addition to a strong currency, MSCI Australia benefited from solid banking shares to return 4.0% for March and 5.9% for the full first quarter. Solid healthcare stocks were among the contributors to MSCI New Zealand, which was the top EAFE performer for March and second best for the first quarter as a whole. The Reserve Bank had the temerity to lift interest rates by 25 basis points, implementing its first policy hike since the summer of 2010. Healthy appreciation of the kiwi dollar helped produce a March advance of 6.5% for MSCI New Zealand and an impressive year-to-date gain of 16.4%.

Sector performance in EAFE was tightly clustered in March, with all ten groups finishing the month between positive and negative 2%. With two exceptions, returns for the full first quarter showed similarly close mixture. Only three sectors were positive in March, and each was positive for the quarter as well. Three other sectors were negative in March, but positive for the full quarter, while four were negative in both time frames. Consumer staples and energy were among the dual winners, adding 0.3% in the latest month as they served as defensive havens amid spikes in volatility. Each did slightly better for the first

quarter as a whole. But the best performer for both March and the full first quarter was the utilities sector, which attracted fresh interest after a lackluster 2013. The EAFE utilities gained 1.8% in March and 7.1% for the full quarter. The other quarterly standout was EAFE health care. Despite giving back 2.0% in March as growth themes lost a little favor, the healthcare sector retains a 5.8% advance since the start of 2014. After healthcare, the weakest sector in March was telecommunications services, which slipped 1.9%. Telecom lost 2.1% for the full first quarter, making it the worst year-to-date performer in EAFE, but investors who rode the sector through its stunning leadership run of 2013 could be forgiven for taking some profits. The only other EAFE sector to lose as much as 50 basis points for the first quarter, consumer discretionary, was also a dual loser. Discretionary shed 1.6% in March and 2.0% for the full quarter, like telecom falling victim to mild profit-taking after notching huge gains in 2013.

International Equity Fund

The Penn Series International Equity Fund returned 8.05% for the six-month period ending June 30, 2014, compared to the 5.14% return for its benchmark, the MSCI EAFE Index.

Generally speaking, global equity markets have been strong and emerging markets have been lifted more sharply as sentiment has improved toward the region from more depressed levels.

Housing Development Finance Corporation (HDFC) was a top contributor to performance. HDFC benefited from the strong recovery in the Indian stock market, as investors are convinced that the newly elected reform-focused government of Narendra Modi will help transform the Indian economy for the better. HDFC is well placed for long-term growth as it is the leader in mortgage lending in India, with margins supported by industry-leading low costs from both efficient operations and low borrowing costs due to its excellent credit history.

Novo Nordisk continues to deliver strong results. Novo is the leading drugs company focused on diabetes care. The company is highly focused on its few core therapeutic areas and rewards shareholders with industry leading growth rates and cash returns.

Rolls Royce, a leading aircraft engine manufacturer, posted lower-than-estimated earnings for fiscal year 2013 and guided to no earnings growth in 2014. The company makes commercial and military engines for airlines, corporations, helicopter operators, and various governments around the world. Our investment is based on the positive secular trend in demand. Older airplanes are being replaced by newer, more fuel-efficient airplanes. Rolls Royce has several clear competitive advantages. First, it has a stellar reputation. Second, it shares a market duopoly with GE Aviation. Third, it has predictable cash flow. An aircraft model has a life of at least 30 years, and an aircraft has a life time of approximately 20 years. When Rolls Royce is selected as a supplier for a particular aircraft, it has a revenue stream that can be expected to last for at least 30 years. Revenues from maintenance account for 50% of consolidated revenues. Given that the average engine is only eight years old, we expect that this cash flow stream will have a long tail.

Paddy Power, an Irish gaming company, released weaker-than-forecast results for its year-to-date period. The company also announced the CEO’s intention to step down

in April of next year. Paddy Power has both a physical gambling business and an online business. The company has a powerful brand and a fun, innovative and edgy image. Its business footprint currently spans only jurisdictions where it can operate legally, which is a rarity in the global online gaming marketplace. Most competitors in the online space have been happy to cross into geographies where gambling is not legal, tempted by the short-term buck to be made. Paddy Power has consistently kept its gaming nose clean and mainly operates in Ireland, the United Kingdom, France, and Australia through direct or business-to-business operating ventures.

Despite macro volatility this year, including Russia/Ukraine, a coup in Thailand, increasing troubles in the Middle East, etc., all major markets had positive returns for the year. While we monitor these global risks as they can lead to oil price shocks, or other nastiness for the businesses in which we invest, we continue to spend the overwhelming majority of our time focused on businesses, their growth prospects and their specific risks. We remain excited about the earnings outlook for the companies held in the strategy, and the portfolio is well-positioned to perform in a variety of market environments.

Emerging Markets Equity Fund

The Penn Series Emerging Markets Equity Fund returned 5.35% for the six-month period ending June 30, 2014, compared to the 6.32% return for its benchmark, the MSCI Emerging Markets Index.

During the six-month period, country allocation relatively was flat, while stock selection contributed slightly to performance. The primary contributors to the Fund’s absolute returns were stock selection and an underweight allocation in China, stock selection and an overweight allocation in Thailand, and stock selection and an overweight allocation in the Philippines. Detracting from relative results were stock selection and allocation in Turkey and stock selection in Poland.

For the past three years, every major assumption about emerging markets (EM) equities has been tested, and investors have shown extreme swings in sentiment from optimism to fear. The first quarter of 2014 showed no variation from such behavior. Early in the year, many EM investors reacted negatively to events in Argentina, Ukraine and to macro-economic numbers from China that disappointed consensus expectations. In March, a sense that a stealth stimulus program was taking place in China, combined with optimism that political prospects were improving in Indonesia, India and Brazil, all contributed to a sudden positive shift in investor sentiment. Hope rallies were major drivers of the latter three markets, with state-owned (largely value-oriented) companies the chief beneficiaries.

Three major factors have contributed to the prevailing bearish sentiment that has plagued emerging markets for some time: current account deficits, domestic dissatisfaction with state political regimes, and excessive credit growth. In an encouraging sign, many investors began to make country distinctions in the first quarter, recognizing the differences and changes taking place among current account deficits; rallying on the prospect for selective political reform; and further acknowledging that China’s credit growth has become problematic. The fundamental fault-line that will continue putting negative pressure on EM equities in coming months remains an increasing recognition that China could suffer economically from its massive credit expansion of the past five years. While the market has discounted much of this, there is still further room to go, in our view.

The Fund’s portfolio remains underweight China and China-related plays via commodities and commodities-oriented markets such as Brazil, Russia and South Africa. In regard to the challenges from rising U.S. bond yields, we remain focused on being overweight those countries which we believe are fundamentally sound but had suffered collateral damage in 2013 — including the Philippines, Mexico, Thailand, Poland and India. These are countries which have not experienced excessive credit growth since the global financial crisis, and whose balance of payments are improving. We consider Eastern Europe a well-placed region to benefit from Europe’s growth recovery. The Philippines remains an underpenetrated market for financial products and we expect gross domestic product (GDP) growth to remain buoyant, driven in part by healthy investment and infrastructure spending. We prefer countries we believe exhibit constructive reform agendas, sustainable levels of investment to GDP and compelling earnings prospects.

Real Estate Securities Fund

The Penn Series Real Estate Securities Fund returned 17.43% for the six-month period ending June 30, 2014, compared to the 17.66% return for its benchmark, the FTSE NAREIT Equity REIT Index.

U.S. REITs registered strong gains in the first half of 2014, outgaining the broad equity market after broadly underperforming in 2013. The period began with an easing in long-term bond yields as signs emerged that the unusually harsh winter weather had a negative impact on economic activity. Investors were initially apprehensive after data revealed that U.S. gross domestic product (GDP) contracted more than anticipated in the first quarter, but that sentiment soon faded as strong jobs reports and accelerating industrial production painted a more upbeat picture of the economy. The positive data lifted investors’ confidence that the recovery had sufficient momentum as the Federal Reserve continued to taper its bond purchases. At the same time, bond yields continued their downward trend amid a combination of an accommodative outlook for U.S. monetary policy and aggressive liquidity measures by the European Central Bank.

Fundamentals continued to improve for all types of real estate, driving solid returns across the REIT landscape. Apartment REITs performed well despite continued pressures of new supply. Many companies exhibited better-than-expected cash flow growth, as continued demand for rental housing enabled them to raise rents on existing tenants, even in markets where new tenants were being signed at lower rates. Revenues at self storage REITs also continued to improve amid rising rents and occupancy rates.

The regional mall and shopping center sectors benefited from growing retail sales and improving tenant demand for in-line storefronts in prime locations. Managements also had relatively good success improving the productivity of lower-performing assets through redevelopment. In the office sector, asset values and rent-growth expectations continued to improve, particularly in New York City and San Francisco. Industrial REITs also saw evidence of strengthening demand and higher rents. However, with developers ramping up construction to meet the demand for built-to-suit multipurpose facilities, investors showed increasing sensitivity to the potential impact of new supply in select markets.

The Fund had a strong total return for the period, driven by favorable stock selection across most property sectors. In

the diversified REIT sector, our participation in a secondary offering from Gramercy Property Trust contributed to relative performance; investors responded positively to the company’s use of capital to purchase the remaining stake in a portfolio of Bank of America branch offices. Other contributors included stock selection in the regional mall, office, apartment and shopping center sectors.

Stock selection in the hotel sector detracted from relative returns, hindered in part by our out-of-index allocations to certain non-REIT hotel owners, which underperformed along with the broader equity market. Among these was Orient-Express Hotels, which owns a hotel in St. Petersburg, Russia and declined amid rising geopolitical tensions in Ukraine.

We believe the U.S. economy remains on track for stronger GDP growth and a gradual rise in interest rates. We view this as a favorable backdrop for REITs, as the potential for higher asset values and cash flows should outweigh the likely return of upward-trending Treasury yields. U.S. REITs continue to offer attractive valuations, in our view, as we believe modest premiums to NAVs are justified given the improvement in real estate fundamentals and continued job growth.

We continue to see attractive value in high-quality regional mall and shopping center landlords, as well as some owners of Class-B assets that we believe offer potential for attractive risk-adjusted returns. Within the self storage sector, we expect further upside to cash flow growth amid strong demand and limited new supply.

Aggressive Allocation Fund

The Penn Series Aggressive Allocation Fund returned 6.21% for the six-month period ending June 30, 2014, compared to the 4.87% and 3.93% returns of its benchmarks, the Russell 3000 Index and the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, respectively.

The Aggressive Allocation Fund is comprised of a target allocation of 95% equity funds, both active and passive, and 5% fixed income funds. The equity allocation of the Fund is comprised of domestic equity funds ranging from large capitalization funds to small capitalization funds as well as developed international and emerging markets equity funds and the fixed income portion is primarily allocated to intermediate-term bond funds.

Asset allocation had little effect on the Fund for the first six months of 2014. At the broad asset class level, the Aggressive Allocation Fund’s equity allocation outperformed its broad equity benchmark, the Russell 3000 Index for the year-to-date period. Contributing to the Fund’s performance versus its equity benchmark at the asset class level was the Fund’s allocation to the real estate, large value and mid value asset classes. While the strongest year-to-date contribution to performance within equity at the underlying fund level came from its allocation to developed international equity, at the asset class level, this international exposure had a negative impact on the Fund’s performance.

The Fund’s fixed income allocation performed in line with the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index for the first six months of the year.

The Fund is continually reviewed to help ensure that it remains consistent with its investment objective by making adjustments, when necessary, of specific sub-accounts within an asset class as well as automatic rebalancing of the Fund on a quarterly basis.

Moderately Aggressive Allocation Fund

The Penn Series Moderately Aggressive Allocation Fund returned 5.54% for the six-month period ending June 30, 2014, compared to the 4.87% and 3.93% returns of its benchmarks, the Russell 3000 Index and the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, respectively.

The Moderately Aggressive Allocation Fund is comprised of a target allocation of 80% equity funds, both active and passive, and 20% fixed income funds. The equity allocation of the Fund is comprised of domestic equity funds ranging from large capitalization funds to small capitalization funds as well as developed international and emerging markets equity funds and the fixed income portion is primarily allocated to intermediate-term and short-term bond funds.

At the broad asset class level, the Moderately Aggressive Allocation Fund’s equity allocation outperformed its broad equity benchmark, the Russell 3000 Index for the six-month period. Contributing to the Fund’s equity performance versus its benchmark was the Fund’s asset class allocation to real estate, mid cap value and large cap value. At the asset class level, this international exposure had a negative impact on the Fund’s performance.

The Fund’s fixed income allocation slightly underperformed the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index for the six-month time period. Detracting from Fund performance was its asset class allocation to short-term bonds.

At the underlying fund level, the Fund’s allocation to developed international equity contributed the most to relative performance while its allocation to smaller growth capitalization detracted from performance.

The Fund is continually reviewed to help ensure that it remains consistent with its investment objective by making adjustments, when necessary, of specific sub-accounts within an asset class as well as automatic rebalancing of the Fund on a quarterly basis.

Moderate Allocation Fund

The Penn Series Moderate Allocation Fund returned 4.83% for the six-month period ending June 30, 2014, compared to the 4.87% and 3.93% returns of its benchmarks, the Russell 3000 Index and the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, respectively.

The Moderate Allocation Fund is comprised of a target allocation of 60% equity funds, both active and passive, and 40% fixed income funds. The equity allocation of the Fund is comprised of domestic equity funds ranging from large capitalization funds to small capitalization funds as well as developed international and emerging markets equity funds and the fixed income portion is primarily allocated to intermediate-term and short-term bond funds.

Asset allocation had a negative effect on performance of the Moderate Allocation Fund. While the Fund’s equity allocation outperformed its broad equity benchmark, the Russell 3000 Index, it was its fixed income allocation that had a negative impact to overall asset allocation performance of the Fund for the first half of 2014. Aiding in the Fund’s six-month equity performance were its allocations to the real estate, mid value and large value asset classes. Weighing on the Fund’s performance was the Fund’s allocation to short-term bonds as this exposure detracted most from relative performance versus its fixed income benchmark.

At the underlying fund level, the Fund’s allocation to developed international equity contributed the most to relative performance while its allocation to smaller growth capitalization detracted from performance.

The Fund is continually reviewed to help ensure that it remains consistent with its investment objective by making adjustments, when necessary, of specific sub-accounts within an asset class as well as automatic rebalancing of the Fund on a quarterly basis.

The Moderately Conservative Allocation Fund is comprised of a target allocation of 40% equity funds, both active and passive, and 60% fixed income funds. The equity allocation of the Fund consists of domestic equity funds comprised of large capitalization and mid capitalization funds as well as developed international equity funds and the fixed income portion is mostly allocated to intermediate-term and short-term bond funds.

Asset allocation had a negative effect on performance of the Moderately Conservative Allocation Fund for the first half of 2014. At the broad asset class level, the Fund’s fixed income allocation underperformed the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index for the period. Detracting from the Fund’s fixed income asset allocation performance versus the broad index was its cash and short-term bond allocations.

The Fund outperformed its broad equity benchmark, the Russell 3000 Index for the six-month period at the asset class level. Contributing to the Fund’s equity performance versus its benchmark was the Fund’s asset class allocation to real estate, mid cap value and large cap value.

The Conservative Allocation Fund is comprised of a target allocation of 80% fixed income funds and a target allocation of 20% in domestic and international equity funds, both passive and active. The fixed income funds predominately consist of short-term and intermediate-term bonds and the equity fund allocations consist of mostly large capitalization funds with a small exposure to developed international equity funds.

At the broad asset class level, the Conservative Allocation Fund’s fixed income allocation had a negative impact on performance as its asset allocation to short-term bonds and cash underperformed the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index for the year-to-date time period. Aiding the Fund’s fixed income allocation performance was its allocation to high yield bonds.

The Fund’s equity allocation performed in line with its broad equity benchmark, the Russell 3000 Index. At the underlying fund level, the Fund’s allocation within developed international equity aided in its equity performance.

The Fund is continually reviewed to help ensure that it remains consistent with its investment objective by making adjustments, when necessary, of specific sub-accounts within an asset class as well as automatic rebalancing of the Fund on a quarterly basis.

Important Information about Fund Expenses

Hypothetical Examples of a $1,000 Investment (Unaudited)

 

We believe that it is important for you to understand the effect of fees on your investment. All mutual funds have operating expenses. As a participant in any of the Penn Series Funds, you incur ongoing costs, which include costs for portfolio management, administrative services, and shareholder reports among others. Operating expenses, which are deducted from a fund’s gross income, directly reduce the investment return of the fund. A fund’s expenses are expressed as a percentage of its average daily net assets. This figure is known as the expense ratio.

The Penn Series Funds are the underlying investment vehicles for the variable life and variable annuity contracts issued by The Penn Mutual Life Insurance Company and its subsidiary, The Penn Insurance and Annuity Company. These contracts have transaction costs, additional administrative expense fees and mortality and expense risk charges. Because of these additional expenses, the costs to investors will be higher than the figures shown in the following expense examples. The expense examples below are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in each fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.

These examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested for six months beginning January 1, 2014 and held through June 30, 2014. The examples illustrate your fund’s costs in two ways:

 

   

Actual Fund Performance in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. The “Ending Value” shown is derived from the fund’s actual return, and “Expenses Paid During Period” shows the dollar amount that would have been paid by an investor who started with $1,000 in the fund. You may use this information, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. To do so, simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number given for your fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period.”

 

   

Hypothetical 5% Annual Return is intended to help you compare your fund’s costs with those of other mutual funds. It assumes that the fund had a return of 5% before expenses during the period shown, but that the expense ratio is unchanged. In this case — because the return used is not the fund’s actual return — the results do not apply to your investment. The example is useful in making comparisons because the Securities and Exchange Commission requires all mutual funds to calculate expenses based on a 5% return. You can assess your fund’s cost by comparing this hypothetical example with the hypothetical examples that appear in shareholder reports of other funds. Because the return used is not an actual return, it may not be used to estimate the actual ending account value or expenses you paid for the period.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are only meant to highlight and help you compare your ongoing costs of investing in the funds and do not reflect any fees and charges deducted under your insurance contract. The “Annualized Expense Ratio” represents the actual expenses for the six-month period indicated.

Loan Agreements in which the Fund invests generally pay interest at rates which are periodically predetermined by reference to a base lending rate plus a premium. These base lending rates are generally (i) the Prime Rate offered by one or more major U.S. banks, (ii) the lending rate offered by one or more European banks such as the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or (iii) the Certificate of Deposit rate. Rate shown represents the actual rate at June 30, 2014. Loan Agreements, while exempt from registration under the Security Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), contain certain restrictions on resale and cannot be sold publicly. Floating rate Loan Agreements often require repayments from excess cash flow or permit the borrower to repay at its election. The degree to which borrowers repay, whether as a contractual requirement or at their election, cannot be predicted with accuracy. As a result, the actual remaining maturity may be substantially less than the stated maturity shown.
* Non-income producing security.
@ Security sold within the terms of a private placement memorandum, restricted and/or exempt from registration under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may be sold only to dealers in the program or other “accredited investors”. Unless otherwise indicated, the security is considered liquid.
^ Illiquid security. The total market value of illiquid securities at June 30, 2014 is $270,306.
Variable Rate Security.
~ Fair valued security. The total market value of fair valued securities at June 30, 2014 is $27,313.

See Security Valuation Note.
* Non-income producing security.
@ Security sold within the terms of a private placement memorandum, restricted and/or exempt from registration under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may be sold only to dealers in the program or other “accredited investors”. Unless otherwise indicated, the security is considered liquid.
Variable Rate Security.
^ Illiquid security. The total market value of illiquid securities at June 30, 2014 is $7,012,054.
Loan Agreements in which the Fund invests generally pay interest at rates which are periodically predetermined by reference to a base lending rate plus a premium. These base lending rates are generally (i) the Prime Rate offered by one or more major U.S. banks, (ii) the lending rate offered by one or more European banks such as the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or (iii) the Certificate of Deposit rate. Rate shown represents the actual rate at June 30, 2014. Loan Agreements, while exempt from registration under the Security Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), contain certain restrictions on resale and cannot be sold publicly. Floating rate Loan Agreements often require repayments from excess cash flow or permit the borrower to repay at its election. The degree to which borrowers repay, whether as a contractual requirement or at their election, cannot be predicted with accuracy. As a result, the actual remaining maturity may be substantially less than the stated maturity shown.

Penn Series Funds, Inc.

Notes to Financial Statements — June 30, 2014 (Unaudited)

 

 

1 — ORGANIZATION

Penn Series Funds, Inc. (“Penn Series”) was incorporated in Maryland on April 22, 1982. Penn Series is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end, diversified management investment company. Penn Series is open only to purchasers of The Penn Mutual Life Insurance Company (“Penn Mutual”) and The Penn Insurance and Annuity Company insurance contracts and certain of Penn Mutual’s employee benefit plans.

Penn Series is presently offering shares in its Money Market, Limited Maturity Bond, Quality Bond, High Yield Bond, Flexibly Managed, Balanced, Large Growth Stock, Large Cap Growth, Large Core Growth, Large Cap Value, Large Core Value, Index 500, Mid Cap Growth, Mid Cap Value, Mid Core Value, SMID Cap Growth, SMID Cap Value, Small Cap Growth, Small Cap Value, Small Cap Index, Developed International Index, International Equity, Emerging Markets Equity, Real Estate Securities, Aggressive Allocation, Moderately Aggressive Allocation, Moderate Allocation, Moderately Conservative Allocation and Conservative Allocation Funds (each a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”). Penn Series also has the authority to issue shares in three additional funds, each of which would have their own investment objective and policies.

Fund of Funds (“FOFs”) — Each Penn Series FOF seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing in other Penn Series Funds (“Underlying Funds”) and uses asset allocation strategies to determine how much to invest in the Underlying Funds. Each of the following Funds is a Penn Series FOFs: Balanced, Aggressive Allocation, Moderately Aggressive Allocation, Moderate Allocation, Moderately Conservative Allocation and Conservative Allocation Funds.

2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following significant accounting policies are followed by Penn Series in the preparation of its financial statements. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates and those differences could be material.

SECURITY VALUATION:

Money Market Fund Investments in securities are valued using the amortized cost method as permitted by Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, which involves initially valuing investments at cost and thereafter assuming a constant amortization to maturity of any premium or discount. This method approximates market value.

Limited Maturity Bond, Quality Bond, High Yield Bond, Flexibly Managed, Large Growth Stock, Large Cap Growth, Large Core Growth, Large Cap Value, Large Core Value, Index 500, Mid Cap Growth, Mid Cap Value, Mid Core Value, SMID Cap Growth, SMID Cap Value, Small Cap Growth, Small Cap Value, Small Cap Index, Developed International Index, International Equity, Emerging Markets Equity, Real Estate Securities Funds Portfolio securities listed on a securities exchange or an automated quotation system for which quotations are readily available, including securities traded over the counter, are valued at the last quoted sale price on the principal exchange or market on which they are traded on the valuation date or, if there is no such reported sale on the valuation date, at the most recent quoted bid price. Securities valued according to these evaluation methods are categorized as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy described below. Debt and fixed income securities are valued by recognized independent third-party valuation services, employing valuation methodologies that utilize actual market transactions, broker-dealer supplied valuations, and matrix pricing. Matrix pricing for corporate bonds, floating rate notes, municipal securities and U.S. government and government agency obligations considers yield or price of bonds of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type and, for asset backed securities, commercial mortgage securities and U.S. government agency mortgage securities, also considers prepayment speed assumptions and attributes and performance of the underlying collateral. Securities valued according to these valuation methods are generally categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy described below. To the extent that bid prices are provided by the pricing service, the Funds will use the bid price. Debt obligations with remaining maturities of sixty days or less may be valued at their amortized cost, which approximates market value. The prices for foreign securities are reported in local currency and converted to U.S. dollars using currency exchange rates.

Options are valued at the last traded price on the market where such options are principally traded or, if there was no trade on such day, at the last bid quote. Futures contracts are valued at the last settlement price on the market where such

Penn Series Funds, Inc.

Notes to Financial Statements — June 30, 2014 (Unaudited)

 

 

futures contracts are principally traded. Although derivatives may be subject to netting provisions, as discussed further in Note 7, derivatives held are valued at their gross amounts.

To assess the continuing appropriateness of third party pricing service security valuations, the Adviser or sub-adviser, as applicable, or the fund accounting service provider, who is subject to oversight by the Administrator, regularly monitor the prices and compare prices to alternate sources where applicable. Pricing challenges are issued for valuation differences exceeding certain tolerances or when considered not reflective of the market by the Adviser or sub-adviser, as applicable.

Securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value prices determined using methods approved by the Penn Series Board of Directors. The Penn Series Valuation Committee (the “Valuation Committee”), established by and subject to oversight by the Board of Directors, monitors pricing related policies and procedures and approves all fair value determinations. The Valuation Committee consists of representatives from Independence Capital Management, Inc. (“ICMI” or the “Adviser”), the investment adviser to each of the Funds, and Penn Mutual, the administrator to the Funds (the “Administrator”). The Valuation Committee regularly makes good faith judgments, using sources and information obtained, including recommendations and supporting rationales and inputs from the Adviser or the applicable sub-adviser, to establish and /or adjust fair valuations of securities as events occur and circumstances warrant. The information and inputs may include but are not limited to cost of the security, last sale price, private transaction trading prices, comparable publically traded security prices, discount rates, publically disclosed news stories and regulatory filings, estimated cash flows and yield curves. As part of its procedures, the Valuation Committee monitors the fair valued securities, considers additional news or significant developments relative to the specific security, reviews the valuations with the Adviser or respective sub-adviser on a regular basis and applies back testing procedures to valuations as applicable. Reasons for which securities may be valued in this manner include, but are not limited to, trading on an exchange for a security has been halted, suspended or has not begun, a security has been de-listed from a national exchange, trading on a security’s primary market is temporarily closed at a time when, under normal conditions, it would be open, or valuation by a third party pricing service is currently not available or is no longer available.

Certain events may occur between the time that foreign markets close, on which securities held by the Fund principally trade, and the time at which the Fund’s NAV is calculated. These securities are valued at a fair value utilizing an independent third party valuation service in accordance with procedures adopted by the Fund’s Board of Directors. The methodology and procedures followed by the valuation service consider the correlation of the trading patterns of the foreign security to the intraday trading in the U.S. markets for investments such as ADRs, financial futures, ETFs, and certain indexes as well as prices for similar securities. Securities valued using such valuation service are classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy as these adjustment factors are considered other observable inputs to the valuation. Values from the valuation service are applied in the event that there is a movement in the U.S. market that exceeds a specific threshold that has been established by the Valuation Committee. The Valuation Committee has also established a “confidence interval”, which is used to determine the level of historical correlation between the value of a specific foreign security and movements in the U.S. market before a particular security will be fair valued when the threshold is exceeded. In the event that the threshold established by the Valuation Committee is exceeded on a specific day, the Funds shall value the non-U.S. securities in their portfolios that exceed the applicable “confidence interval” based upon the adjusted prices provided by the fair valuation service.

The determination of a security’s fair value price often involves the consideration of a number of subjective factors, and is therefore subject to the unavoidable risk that the value assigned to a security may be higher or lower than the security’s value would be if a reliable market quotation for the security was readily available.

Balanced, Aggressive Allocation, Moderately Aggressive Allocation, Moderate Allocation, Moderately Conservative Allocation and Conservative Allocation Funds The valuation of each Fund’s investment in its Underlying Funds is based on the net asset values of the Underlying Funds each business day.

Fair value measurements are determined within a framework that has established a fair value hierarchy based upon the various data inputs utilized in determining the value of the Fund’s investments. Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset. Inputs may be observable or unobservable. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own

assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best information available in the circumstances. These inputs are summarized into three broad levels as follows:

 

   

Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical securities

 

   

Level 2 — other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)

 

   

Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

Transfers between levels 1 and 2 during the six months ended June 30, 2014, if any, are shown as notes on the Schedule of Investments of the individual fund.

Significant Level 3 items at June 30, 2014 consist of $407,090 of equities in the Large Growth Stock Fund which were not publicly trading. The unobservable inputs used in valuing these securities include new rounds of financing, negotiated transactions of significant size between other investors in the company, relevant market valuations of peer companies and strategic events affecting the company. Significant increases (decreases) in the valuation indicated by the new rounds of financing, valuations observed through negotiated transactions between other investors in the company or changes in the market valuation of relevant peer companies would result in directionally similar changes to the fair value. Fair value determinations are reviewed and updated on a regular basis and as information becomes available, including actual purchase and sale transactions of the issue.

Foreign Currency Translation The books and records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S. dollars on the following basis: market value of investment securities, assets and liabilities at the current rate of exchange; purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses at the relevant rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions.

The Funds do not isolate the portion of realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments which is due to changes in the foreign exchange rate from that which is due to changes in market prices of equity securities. Such fluctuations are included with net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.

Foreign security and currency transactions may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with those of U.S. dollar-denominated transactions as a result of, among other factors, the level of governmental supervision and regulation of foreign securities markets and the possibility of political or economic instability.

Loan Agreements Certain Funds may invest in loan agreements, also known as bank loans, which represent an interest in amounts owed by a borrower to a syndication of lenders. Bank loans may involve multiple loans with the same borrower under a single credit agreement (each loan, a tranche), and each tranche may have different terms and associated risks. A bank or other financial institution typically acts as the agent and administers a bank loan in accordance with the associated credit agreement. Bank loans are generally noninvestment grade and often involve borrowers whose financial condition is troubled or uncertain and companies that are highly leveraged. The Funds may buy and sell bank loans in the form of either loan assignments or loan participations. A loan assignment transfers all legal, beneficial, and economic rights to the buyer. Although loan assignments continue to be administered by the agent, the buyer acquires direct rights against the borrower. In many cases, a loan assignment requires the consent of both the borrower and the agent. In contrast, a loan participation generally entitles the buyer to receive the cash flows from principal, interest, and any fee payments that the seller is entitled to receive from the borrower; however, the seller continues to hold legal title to the loan. As a result, with loan participations, the buyer generally has no right to enforce compliance with terms of the credit agreement against the borrower, and the buyer is subject to the credit risk of both the borrower and the seller. Bank loans often have extended settlement periods, during which the fund is subject to nonperformance by the counterparty.

SECURITY TRANSACTIONS, INVESTMENT INCOME AND EXPENSES: Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date and interest income is accrued as earned. Discounts and premiums are accreted and amortized using the effective interest method. The cost of investment securities sold is determined by using the specific identification method for both financial reporting and income tax purposes. Expenses directly attributable to a

Fund are directly charged. Common expenses of the Funds are allocated using methods approved by the Board of Directors, generally based on average net assets. Expenses included in the accompanying financial statements reflect the expenses of each Fund and do not include any expenses associated with the Underlying Funds of the FOFs.

DIVIDENDS TO SHAREHOLDERS: Except for the Money Market Fund, all or a portion of each Fund’s undistributed net investment income and accumulated net realized gain on investment and foreign exchange transactions, if any, at December 31, 2013 were deemed distributed as consent dividends to each respective Fund’s shareholders in place of regular distributions. As consent dividends, shareholders of each Fund agree to treat their share of undistributed net investment income and accumulated net realized gain on investment and foreign exchange transactions, if any, at December 31, 2013, respectively, as dividend income and net capital gains for tax purposes. In the case of the Money Market Fund, dividends paid from undistributed net investment income and accumulated net realized gain on investments are declared daily and paid monthly.

Dividends from net investment income and distributions from net realized gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations which may differ from net investment income and net realized capital gains recorded in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. To the extent that these differences are permanent, such amounts are reclassified within the capital accounts based on their federal tax basis treatment; temporary differences do not require such reclassification. Distributions from net realized gains may involve short-term capital gains, which are included as ordinary income for tax purposes.

The character of distributions received from real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) held by a Fund is generally comprised of net investment income, capital gains, and return of capital. It is the policy of the Funds to estimate the character of distributions received from the underlying REITs based on historical data provided by the REITs. As of year-end, differences between the estimated and actual amounts are reflected in a Fund’s records.

* For FoFs, with the exception of the Balanced Fund, the operating expense limit applies only at the Fund level and does not limit the fees indirectly incurred by the FOFs through their investments in the Underlying Funds.

Effective September 10, 2009, Penn Series, on behalf of its Money Market Fund, ICMI, and Penn Mutual, entered into an agreement whereby ICMI and Penn Mutual may temporarily and voluntarily waive fees and/or reimburse expenses in excess of their current fee waiver and expense reimbursement commitments in an effort to maintain a minimum net distribution yield for the Money Market Fund. Under the agreement, ICMI and Penn Mutual may, subject to certain minimum yield criteria, as well as a prospective three-year reimbursement period, recapture from the Money Market Fund any fees or expenses waived and/or reimbursed under this arrangement. These reimbursement payments by the Fund to ICMI and/or Penn Mutual are considered “extraordinary expenses” and are not subject to any net operating expense limitations in effect at the time of such payment. This recapture could negatively affect the Fund’s future yield.

Effective May 1, 2014, Penn Mutual has eliminated the voluntary waiver on the Index 500 Fund, which waived administrative and corporate services fees so that the Fund’s total expenses did not exceed 0.35%. Effective May 1, 2014,

Penn Mutual and ICMI have eliminated their voluntarily waivers on the Emerging Markets Equity Fund, which waived a portion of their fees so that the Fund’s total expenses did not exceed 1.68%. During the period January 1, 2014 through April 30, 2014, ICMI voluntarily waived $31,604 of advisor fees in the Emerging Markets Equity Fund.

If, at the end of each month, there is no liability of ICMI and Penn Mutual to pay the Funds such excess amount, and if payments of the advisory fee or administrative and corporate services fee at the end of prior months during the preceding three fiscal years have been reduced in excess of that required to maintain expenses within the expense limitation, such excess reduction is eligible to be recaptured by ICMI and Penn Mutual and, if recaptured, would become payable by the Funds to ICMI and Penn Mutual along with the advisory fee or administrative and corporate services fee for that month, as applicable. Penn Mutual and/or ICMI’s election not to recapture the amount of any reduction and reimbursement to which it is entitled in no way impairs the rights of Penn Mutual and/or ICMI to subsequently recapture such amount, provided that such amount remains eligible for recapture and would not cause the Fund to exceed its expense limit for that fee payment period.

As of June 30, 2014, the following Funds had waived and/or reimbursed administrative and corporate services fees that are subject to potential recapture by Penn Mutual through the periods stated below. If not recaptured, the waiver and/or reimbursed administrative and corporate services fees will expire according to the table below:

6 — FEDERAL INCOME TAXES

Each Fund has qualified and intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code for federal income tax purposes. As such, each Fund is required to distribute all investment company taxable income and net capital gains, if any, to its shareholders in order to avoid the imposition of entity-level federal, state, and local income taxes as well as an entity-level excise tax. Except for the Money Market Fund, to the extent any Fund had undistributed investment company taxable income and net capital gains at December 31, 2013, such undistributed investment company taxable income and net capital gains were deemed distributed as consent dividends in place of regular distributions. Accordingly, no provision has been made for federal, state, or local income and excise taxes.

On December 22, 2010, The Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (the “Act”) was signed into law. The Act amended several tax rules impacting the Funds. Some highlights of the enacted provisions are as follows:

The Act allows for capital losses occurring in the taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010 (“post-enactment losses”) to be carried forward indefinitely. However, the Act requires any future gains to be first offset by post-enactment losses before using capital losses incurred in the taxable years beginning prior to the effective date of the Act (“pre-enactment losses”). As a result of this ordering rule, pre-enactment loss carryforwards have an increased likelihood to expire unused. Furthermore, post-enactment losses will retain their character as either long-term capital losses or short-term capital losses rather than being considered all short-term capital losses as under previous law.

The Act provides that a RIC may elect for any taxable year to treat any portion of any qualified late-year loss for such taxable year as arising on the first day of the following taxable year. The term “qualified late-year loss” means any post-October capital loss and any late-year ordinary loss.

The Act also contains simplification provisions, which are aimed at preventing disqualification of a RIC for “inadvertent” failures of the asset diversification and/or qualifying income tests.

Reclassification of Capital Accounts:

Dividends from net investment income and distributions from net realized capital gains are determined in accordance with U.S. federal income tax regulations, which may differ from those amounts determined under U.S. GAAP. These book/tax differences are either temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent, they are charged or credited to paid-in capital or accumulated net realized gain or net investment income, as appropriate, in the period that the differences arise. Accordingly, the following permanent differences as of December 31, 2013, primarily attributable to consent dividends, reclass of capital gains tax income recognized from pass-through entities, the disallowance of net operating losses, the tax treatment of Passive Foreign Investment Companies, the redesignation of

The differences between book basis and tax basis appreciation are primarily due to wash sales, Passive Foreign Investment Companies, Partnership Investments, Trust Preferred Securities, real estate investment trust adjustments, and the treatment of certain corporate actions.

Management has analyzed the Funds’ tax positions taken on federal income tax returns for all open tax years and has concluded that as of June 30, 2014, no provision for income tax would be required in the Funds’ financial statements. The Funds’ federal and state income and federal excise tax returns for tax years for which the applicable statutes of limitations have not expired are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state department of revenue.

7 — DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Funds may trade derivative financial instruments in the normal course of investing activities to assist in managing exposure to market risks such as interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. These financial instruments include written options, forward foreign currency exchange contracts and futures contracts.

The notional or contractual amounts of these instruments represent the investment the Funds have in particular classes of financial instruments and do not necessarily represent the amounts potentially subject to risk. The measurement of the risks associated with these instruments is meaningful only when all related and offsetting transactions are considered.

Futures Contracts — A futures contract is a standardized contract between two parties to buy or sell a specified asset at a specified future date at a price agreed today (the future price). The party agreeing to buy the underlying asset in the future assumes a long position. The price is determined by the instantaneous equilibrium between the forces of supply and demand among competing buy and sell orders on the exchange at the time of the purchase or sale of the contract.

To the extent permitted by the investment objective, restrictions and policies set forth in the Funds’ Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information, the Funds may participate in various derivative-based transactions. The Index 500, Developed International Index and Small Cap Index Funds employ futures to maintain market exposure and otherwise assist in attempting to replicate the performance of their respective indices. These derivatives offer unique characteristics and risks that assist the Funds in meeting their investment objectives. The Funds typically use derivatives in two ways: cash equitization and return enhancement. Cash equitization is a technique that may be used by the Funds through the use of futures contracts to earn “market-like” returns with the Funds’ excess and liquidity reserve cash balances and receivables. Return enhancement can be accomplished through the use of derivatives in the Funds. By purchasing these instruments, the Funds may more effectively achieve the desired fund characteristics that assist in meeting the Funds’ investment objectives.

Futures contracts involve a number of risks, such as possible default by the counterparty to the transaction, credit risk with respect to initial and variation margins held in a brokerage account, market movement and the potential of greater loss than if these techniques had not been used by a Fund. These investments can also increase the Fund’s share price and expose the Fund to significant additional costs.

Options — An option establishes a contract between two parties concerning the buying or selling of an asset at a reference price. The buyer of the option gains the right, but not the obligation, to engage in some specific transaction on the asset, while the seller incurs the obligation to fulfill the transaction if so requested by the buyer. The price of an option derives from the difference between the reference price and the value of the underlying asset plus a premium based on the time remaining until the expiration of the option. The Funds may buy and sell options, or write options.

Options are valued daily based upon the last sale price on the principal exchange on which the option is traded. The difference between the premium received or paid, and market value of the option, is recorded as unrealized appreciation or depreciation. The net change in unrealized appreciation or depreciation is reported in the Statement of Operations. When an option is exercised, the cost of the security purchased or the proceeds of the security sale are adjusted by the amount of premium received or paid. Upon the expiration or closing of the option transaction, a gain or loss is reported in the Statement of Operation.

The Flexibly Managed and High Yield Bond Funds have purchased options to decrease exposure to equity risk. The risk associated with purchased options is limited to premium paid. The Funds also received premiums for options written. The risk in writing a call option is that the Funds give up the opportunity for profit if the market price of the security increases and the option is exercised. The risk in writing a put option is that the Funds may incur a loss if the market price of the security decreases and the option is exercised. The risk in buying an option is that the Funds pay a premium whether or not the option is exercised. The Funds also have the additional risk that there may be an illiquid market where the Funds are unable to close the contract.

Transactions in options written during the six months ended June 30, 2014 for the Flexibly Managed Fund were as follows:

Forward Foreign Currency Contracts — A forward currency contract involves an obligation to purchase or sell a specific currency at a future date, which may be any number of days from the date of the contract agreed upon by the parties, at a price set at the time of the contract. These contracts are traded directly between currency traders and their customers. The contract is marked-to-market daily and the change in market value is recorded by each Fund as an unrealized gain or loss. When the contract is closed or offset with the same counterparty, the Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the change in the value of the contract when it was opened and the value at the time it was closed or offset.

The High Yield Bond, Mid Core Value and Emerging Markets Equity Funds entered into forward currency contracts in conjunction with the planned purchase or sale of foreign denominated securities in order to hedge the U.S. dollar cost or proceeds. The Funds hedge currencies in times of base currency weakness in order to reduce the volatility of returns for the local securities which the Fund owns.

Foreign forward currency contracts involve a number of risks, including the possibility of default by the counterparty to the transaction and, to the extent the portfolio manager’s judgment as to certain market movements is incorrect, the risk of losses that are greater than if the investment technique had not been used. For example, there may be an imperfect correlation between the Fund’s portfolio holdings of securities denominated in a particular currency and the forward contracts entered into by the Fund. An imperfect correlation of this type may prevent the Fund from achieving the intended hedge or expose the Fund to the risk of currency exchange loss. These investment techniques also tend to limit any potential gain that might result from an increase in the value of the hedged position. These investments can also increase the volatility of the Fund’s share price and expose the Fund to significant additional costs.

In order to better define their contractual rights and to secure rights that will help the Funds mitigate their counterparty risk, the Funds may participate in International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. Master Agreements (“ISDA Master Agreement” or “ISDA”) with derivative contract counterparties or enter into similar agreements covering foreign exchange contracts (“Fx Letters”). An ISDA Master Agreement is a bilateral agreement between a Fund and a counterparty that governs over-the-counter (“OTC”) traded derivatives and foreign exchange contracts and typically contains, among other things, collateral posting terms and netting provisions in the event of a default and/or termination event. Under an ISDA Master Agreement, a Fund may, under certain circumstances, offset with the counterparty certain derivative financial instrument’s payables and/or receivables with collateral held and/or posted and create one single net payment. The provisions of the ISDA Master Agreement typically permit a single net payment in the event of default (close-out netting) including the bankruptcy or insolvency of the counterparty. Also, bankruptcy or insolvency laws of a

particular jurisdiction may impose restrictions on or prohibitions against the right of offset in bankruptcy, insolvency or other events. An Fx Letter is also a bilateral agreement between a Fund and a counterparty and is limited to cover only foreign exchange contracts. Fx Letters typically contain netting provisions covering events of default and do not require collateral to be posted. ISDAs and Fx Letters containing netting provisions may be referred to as Master Netting Agreements (“MNA”).

Collateral and margin requirements differ by type of derivative. Margin requirements are established by the broker for OTC traded derivatives or by the clearing house for exchange traded derivatives. Brokers can ask for margining in excess of the minimum in certain circumstances. Collateral terms are contract specific for OTC derivatives (foreign currency exchange contracts and options). For derivatives traded under an ISDA Master Agreement, the collateral requirements are typically calculated by netting the mark to market amount for each transaction under such agreement and comparing that amount to the value of any collateral currently pledged by a Fund and the counterparty. Generally, the amount of collateral due from or to a party has to exceed a minimum transfer amount threshold before a transfer has to be made. To the extent amounts due to a Fund from its counterparties are not fully collateralized, contractually or otherwise, the Fund bears the risk of loss from counterparty non-performance. The Fund attempts to mitigate counterparty risk by only entering into agreements with counterparties that it believes have the financial resources to honor their obligations and by monitoring the financial stability of those counterparties.

The following table presents derivative assets and liabilities net of amounts available for offset under a MNA and, as applicable, the related collateral and potential loss exposure to each Fund as of June 30, 2014:

8 — CREDIT AND MARKET RISK

The Funds may invest a portion of their assets in illiquid securities, which may include securities with contractual restrictions on resale, securities exempt from registration under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and other securities which may not be readily marketable. The relative illiquidity of these securities may impair the Funds’ ability to dispose of them in a timely manner and at a fair price when it is necessary or preferable to do so.

The high yield securities in which the High Yield Bond Fund may invest are predominantly speculative as to the issuer’s continuing ability to meet principal and interest payments. The value of the lower quality securities in which the High Yield Bond Fund may invest will be affected by the credit worthiness of individual issuers, general economic and specific industry conditions, and will fluctuate inversely with changes in interest rates. In addition, the secondary trading market for lower quality bonds may be less active and less liquid than the trading market for higher quality bonds.

The High Yield Bond, Flexibly Managed, Large Growth Stock, Large Cap Growth, Mid Cap Growth, Mid Core Value, Small Cap Growth Developed International Index, International Equity and the Emerging Markets Equity Funds invest in securities of foreign issuers in various countries. These investments may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with investments in the United States, as a result of, among other factors, the possibility of future political and economic developments and the level of governmental supervision and regulation of securities markets in the respective countries.

9 — CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS

In the general course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnification. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, management of the Funds expects the risk of loss to be remote.

10 — PENDING LEGAL MATTERS

Penn Series was named as a defendant and a putative member of the proposed defendant class of shareholders in the case entitled Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors of Tribune Co. v. FitzSimons (In re Tribune Co.), No. 12-cv-02652 (WHP) (S.D.N.Y.), as a result of the Penn Series Index 500 Fund’s ownership of shares in the Tribune Company (“Tribune”) in 2007. On May 20, 2014, the plaintiff in this case voluntarily dismissed the action against Penn Series, with prejudice, pursuant to a settlement agreement. Neither the litigation nor the settlement had a material adverse effect on the NAV of the Penn Series Index 500 Fund.

11 — SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Management has evaluated the impact of all subsequent events on the Funds through the date the financial statements were issued and has determined that there were no subsequent events requiring recognition or disclosure in the financial statements.

Board Approval of Investment Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements

The Penn Series Funds, Inc. (the “Company”) and Independence Capital Management, Inc. (“ICMI”) have entered into an investment advisory agreement (the “Advisory Agreement”). Pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, ICMI (i) provides day-to-day investment management services to the Money Market, Limited Maturity Bond, Quality Bond, Balanced, Aggressive Allocation, Moderately Aggressive Allocation, Moderate Allocation, Moderately Conservative Allocation, and Conservative Allocation Funds (collectively, the “Directly Managed Funds”) and (ii) is responsible for the selection and oversight of various investment sub-advisers who perform day-to-day investment management services for the High Yield Bond, Flexibly Managed, Large Growth Stock, Large Cap Value, Large Cap Growth, Index 500, Mid Cap Growth, Mid Cap Value, Mid Core Value, Small Cap Value, Small Cap Growth, International Equity, Real Estate Securities, Large Core Growth, Large Core Value, SMID Cap Growth, SMID Cap Value, Emerging Markets Equity, Small Cap Index and Developed International Index Funds (collectively, the “Sub-Advised Funds” and, together with the Directly Managed Funds, the “Penn Series Funds”).

ICMI acts as a “manager of managers” for the Sub-Advised Funds. In this capacity, ICMI has entered into and the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) has approved separate sub-advisory agreements (the “Sub-Advisory Agreements” and, together with the Advisory Agreement, the “Investment Advisory Agreements”) with each of the sub-advisers identified below (each, a “Sub-Adviser” and collectively, the “Sub-Advisers”). The Sub-Advisers provide their services to the Sub-Advised Funds under the supervision of ICMI and the Board. Each Sub-Adviser is selected based primarily upon the research and recommendations of ICMI, which evaluates quantitatively and qualitatively each Sub-Adviser’s investment expertise and investment results in managing assets for specific asset classes, investment styles and strategies, as well as the Sub-Adviser’s regulatory compliance infrastructure and culture. ICMI oversees each Sub-Adviser to ensure compliance with the Sub-Advised Fund’s investment policies and guidelines, and monitors each Sub-Adviser’s adherence to its investment style and investment performance.

The Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), requires that the initial approval of, as well as the continuation of, each Penn Series Fund’s Investment Advisory Agreement(s) be specifically approved by: (i) the vote of the Board or by a vote of the shareholders of the Fund; and (ii) the vote of a majority of the Company’s Directors who are not “interested persons,” as defined in the 1940 Act (collectively, the “Independent Directors”), cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval. In connection with its consideration of such approvals, the Board must request and evaluate, and ICMI and the Sub-Advisers are required to furnish, such information as may be reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreements. In addition, the Securities and Exchange Commission takes the position that, as part of their fiduciary duties with respect to a mutual fund’s fees, mutual fund boards are required to evaluate the material factors applicable to a decision to approve an Investment Advisory Agreement.

Board Approval of New Investment Sub-Advisory Agreement

At a meeting of the Board held on February 19, 2014, ICMI recommended, and the Board, including a majority of the Independent Directors of the Company, approved, the replacement of Turner Investments, L.P. (“Turner”), the then-existing sub-adviser to the Mid Cap Growth Fund (the “Fund”), with Ivy Investment Management Company (“Ivy”) effective May 1, 2014.

The recommendation to hire Ivy was made by ICMI in the ordinary course of its ongoing evaluation of the Fund’s investment strategy and performance, and after extensive research of numerous candidate firms and qualitative and quantitative analysis of each candidate’s organizational structure, investment process, style and long-term performance record.

Sub-Advisory Agreement. ICMI entered into an investment sub-advisory agreement with Ivy, dated May 1, 2014 (the “Ivy Sub-Advisory Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of the Ivy Sub-Advisory Agreement, Ivy is responsible for making investment decisions for the assets of the Fund and continuously reviewing, supervising and administering the Fund’s investment program. Ivy is independent of ICMI and discharges its responsibilities subject to the supervision of ICMI and the Board, and in a manner consistent with the Fund’s investment objectives, policies and limitations. The Ivy Sub-Advisory Agreement replaced the sub-advisory agreement between ICMI and Turner, with respect to the Fund, dated May 1, 2000, as amended May 17, 2007 and January 31, 2008, and assigned and assumed on January 1, 2012. The termination of the sub-advisory agreement between ICMI and Turner was effective as of the opening of the New York Stock Exchange on May 1, 2014.

Penn Series Funds, Inc.

The Ivy Sub-Advisory Agreement is substantially similar to the other Sub-Advisory Agreements in existence between ICMI and the Company’s other Sub-Advisers. Specifically, the duties to be performed, standard of care and termination provisions of the Ivy Sub-Advisory Agreement are similar to the other Sub-Advisory Agreements. The material differences between the Ivy Sub-Advisory Agreement and the other Sub-Advisory Agreements are the identity of the Sub-Adviser, the effective date, the termination date, and the compensation payable by ICMI to the Sub-Adviser. The Ivy Sub-Advisory Agreement will remain in effect for two years from its effective date (unless earlier terminated in accordance with the terms of the Ivy Sub-Advisory Agreement), and will be subject to annual approval thereafter by a majority of the Directors, including a majority of the Independent Directors.

Board Considerations. Prior to the approval of Ivy, the Board received written information and an oral presentation from ICMI and Ivy. ICMI also reviewed with the Board the bases for its recommendations, including the findings of its due diligence review of Ivy. The Board then met with representatives of ICMI and Ivy and considered information about Ivy’s portfolio managers, investment philosophies, strategies and processes, brokerage practices, and compliance processes, as well as other factors. As further outlined below, in approving Ivy, the Board carefully evaluated: (1) the nature, extent and quality of the services expected to be rendered to the Fund; (2) the performance record of Ivy; (3) the costs of the services expected to be rendered to the Fund; and (4) the existence of economies of scale that may be realized by ICMI and Ivy and whether any corresponding benefits would be passed along to the Fund’s shareholders. The Board discussed the written materials provided in advance of the meeting and Ivy’s oral presentations and any other information that the Board received at the meeting, and deliberated on approving the Ivy Sub-Advisory Agreement in light of this information. The Board used the foregoing information, as well as such other information as the Directors considered to be relevant in the exercise of their reasonable judgment, in their decision to approve Ivy as sub-adviser to the Fund.

Nature, Extent and Quality of Sub-Advisory Services. In considering the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided by Ivy, the Board evaluated, among other things, Ivy’s business, personnel, experience, investment decision process, past performance, brokerage practices, including soft dollar practices, any conflicts of interest, compliance program and the resources of Ivy to be dedicated to the Fund. Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the nature, extent and quality of services to be provided by Ivy to the Fund and the resources of Ivy to be dedicated to the Fund supported approval of the Ivy Sub-Advisory Agreement.

Performance Record. In considering the past performance record of Ivy, the Board evaluated the recent and long-term performance of the similar accounts managed by Ivy relative to its peer group and appropriate indices/benchmarks, in light of total return and economic and market trends and both market risk and shareholder risk expectations. The Board also considered Ivy’s ability to execute on its strategies, the consistency of its returns and volatility over various market cycles, and the strength of its reputation among insurance producers. Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that Ivy’s performance supported approval of the Ivy Sub-Advisory Agreement.

Costs of Sub-Advisory Services. In considering the costs of the sub-advisory services to be provided by Ivy, the Board evaluated (a) the services to be provided by Ivy; (b) the sub-advisory fees to be paid to Ivy, including in particular the breakpoints in the graduated sub-advisory fee rate schedule; (c) the sub-advisory fees to be paid to Ivy in comparison to sub-advisory fees charged to other comparable mutual funds and other types of comparable accounts; and (d) the fact that Ivy will be compensated by ICMI and not by the Fund directly and that such compensation reflects an arms-length negotiation between Ivy and ICMI. Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the sub-advisory fee charged under the Ivy Sub-Advisory Agreement is reasonable and supported approval of the Ivy Sub-Advisory Agreement.

Profitability. Because it was not yet possible to determine the profitability that Ivy might achieve with respect to the services Ivy will provide to the Fund, the Board did not reach any conclusions regarding the Sub-Adviser’s profitability, but did take into account the fact that Ivy will be compensated by ICMI and not by the Fund directly, and that such compensation reflects an arms-length negotiation between Ivy and ICMI. The Board also considered the impact of the sub-advisory arrangement on the profitability of ICMI.

Economies of Scale. The Board considered the existence of any economies of scale and whether any such economies of scale would be passed along to the Fund’s shareholders through breakpoints or other means, including any fee waivers by ICMI and its affiliates. The Board noted, in particular, that ICMI has contractually committed to waive fees and/or reimburse

 

220


 

Penn Series Funds, Inc.

certain expenses of the Fund to maintain the Fund’s total expense ratio at 1.00%. Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, the Fund and its shareholders obtain a reasonable benefit from any economies of scale realized by ICMI and Ivy.

Based on the Board’s deliberations and its evaluation of the information described above, the Board, including all of the Independent Directors, unanimously approved the Ivy Sub-Advisory Agreement and concluded that the compensation under the Ivy Sub-Advisory Agreement is fair and reasonable in light of such services and such other matters as the Board considered to be relevant in the exercise of the Directors’ reasonable judgment. In the course of its deliberations, the Board did not identify any particular information or factor that was all-important or controlling.

Board Approval of the Continuance of Investment Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements

The Board called and held a meeting on May 15, 2014 to consider whether to renew the Advisory Agreement between the Company and ICMI with respect to each Penn Series Fund. In preparation for this meeting, the Board provided ICMI with a written request for information and received and reviewed, in advance of the May 15, 2014 meeting, extensive written materials in response to that request, including information as to the performance of each Penn Series Fund versus its benchmark and peer universe, the level of the investment advisory fees charged to the Penn Series Fund, comparisons of such fees with the investment advisory fees incurred by comparable funds, including, in particular, funds acting as underlying investments for insurance products, the costs to ICMI of providing such services, including a profitability analysis, ICMI’s compliance program, and various other matters. In addition, at the May 15, 2014 meeting, the Board considered whether to renew each Sub-Advisory Agreement between ICMI and each Sub-Adviser listed in the table below on behalf of its respective Sub-Advised Fund(s).

In response to the Board’s written request for information, each of the Sub-Advisers submitted, in advance of the May 15, 2014 meeting, extensive written materials for consideration by the Board and the Independent Directors. The information provided by ICMI and the Sub-Advisers in connection with the May 15, 2014 Board meeting was in addition to the detailed information about the Penn Series Funds that the Board reviews during the course of each year, including information that relates to the Funds’ operations and the Funds’ performance and the services of ICMI and the Sub-Advisers. In connection with the meeting, the Board also received a memorandum from legal counsel regarding the responsibilities of the Board in

 

221


 

Penn Series Funds, Inc.

June 30, 2014

 

 

connection with its consideration of whether to approve the Investment Advisory Agreements. In addition, the Independent Directors met in executive session outside the presence of Company management to discuss the information submitted to the Board in connection with the renewal of the Investment Advisory Agreements. The Independent Directors also met in executive session with senior representatives of ICMI to discuss the written materials provided by ICMI.

The written materials provided by ICMI and the Sub-Advisers addressed, among other matters, the following: (a) the quality of ICMI’s and the Sub-Advisers’ investment management and other services and, with respect to ICMI, its services as a “manager of managers” of the Sub-Advised Funds; (b) ICMI’s and the Sub-Advisers’ investment management personnel; (c) ICMI’s and the Sub-Advisers’ operations and financial condition; (d) ICMI’s and the Sub-Advisers’ brokerage practices (including best execution policies, evaluating execution quality, average commission rates on fund trades, soft dollar arrangements and affiliated and directed brokerage arrangements) and investment strategies; (e) the level of the advisory fees that ICMI and each Sub-Adviser charges a Fund, including breakpoints, compared with the fees each charges to comparable mutual funds and other types of accounts it manages, if any; (f) the level of ICMI’s and each Sub-Adviser’s cost of services provided and estimated profitability from its fund-related operations; (g) ICMI’s and the Sub-Advisers’ risk management, compliance programs and, if applicable, a description of the material changes made to, and material compliance violations of, the compliance program; (h) ICMI’s and the Sub-Advisers’ reputation, expertise and resources in domestic and/or international financial markets; and (i) each Penn Series Fund’s performance compared with similar mutual funds, other types of accounts and benchmark indices. In evaluating the advisory fees charged by ICMI, the Board reviewed both Lipper Analysis, which provided unbiased and non-consultative fee, expense and investment performance information based on asset size comparability, and ICMI’s internal analysis regarding ICMI’s total fund expense ratios and advisory fees compared to those of ICMI’s direct competitors.

At the meeting, representatives from ICMI commented on the information delivered to the Board and answered questions from Board members to help the Board evaluate ICMI’s and the Sub-Advisers’ fees and other aspects of the Investment Advisory Agreements. The Directors discussed the written materials that the Board received before the meeting, and deliberated on the renewal of the Investment Advisory Agreements in light of this information. The Board also considered its extensive review of advisory fee schedules, asset level breakpoints, and peer comparisons that took place at the November 13, 2013 meeting, including its review of the impact of advisory fees on the profitability of ICMI and the Sub-Advisers. The Board, including the Independent Directors, unanimously approved new or modified advisory fee rate schedules for over half of the Penn Series Funds at the November 13, 2013 meeting, subject to shareholder approval, which was achieved at a shareholder meeting on February 13, 2014.

At the May 15, 2014 meeting of the Board, the Directors, including the Independent Directors, unanimously approved the Investment Advisory Agreements and approved the selection of ICMI and the Sub-Advisers to act in their respective capacities for the Funds. The Board’s approval was based on its consideration and evaluation of a variety of specific factors discussed at the meeting and at prior meetings during the year, including:

 

   

the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Penn Series Funds under the Investment Advisory Agreements, including the resources of ICMI and the Sub-Advisers dedicated to the Penn Series Funds;

 

   

each Penn Series Fund’s investment performance and how it compared to that of other comparable mutual funds and appropriate benchmarks/indices;

 

   

the fees charged to each Penn Series Fund under each Investment Advisory Agreement and how those fees compared to those of other comparable mutual funds and other types of accounts;

 

   

the cost of services provided by and the profitability of ICMI and the Sub-Advisers with respect to each Penn Series Fund, including both direct and indirect benefits accruing to ICMI and the Sub-Advisers and their affiliates, if any; and

 

   

the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the Penn Series Funds grow and whether fee levels in the Investment Advisory Agreements reflect those economies of scale for the benefit of fund investors.

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. The Directors considered the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by ICMI and the Sub-Advisers to the Penn Series Funds and the resources of ICMI and the Sub-Advisers dedicated to the Funds. In this regard, the Directors evaluated, among other things, ICMI’s and the Sub-Advisers’ business, personnel, experience,

 

222


 

Penn Series Funds, Inc.

June 30, 2014

 

 

investment decision process, past performance, brokerage practices, including soft dollar practices, any conflicts of interest, compliance program and resources to be dedicated to each Fund. Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the nature, extent and quality of services provided by ICMI and the Sub-Advisers to the Penn Series Funds and the resources of ICMI and the Sub-Advisers dedicated to the Penn Series Funds supported renewal of the Investment Advisory Agreements.

Fund Performance. The Directors considered fund performance in determining whether to renew the Investment Advisory Agreements. Specifically, the Directors considered each Penn Series Fund’s recent and long-term performance relative to its peer group and appropriate indices/benchmarks, in light of total return, yield and economic and market trends. In evaluating performance, the Directors considered both market risk and shareholder risk expectations for a given Penn Series Fund. The Board also considered its discussions with ICMI regarding the underperformance of those Sub-Advisers on ICMI’s “watchlist.” Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the performance of the Penn Series Funds (both actual performance and comparable performance) supported renewal of the Investment Advisory Agreements.

Costs of Advisory and Sub-Advisory Services. The Directors considered the costs of the advisory and sub-advisory services provided to the Penn Series Funds by ICMI and the Sub-Advisers, respectively. The Board evaluated (a) the advisory and sub-advisory services provided; (b) the advisory and sub-advisory fees paid, including in particular the breakpoint schedules; (c) the advisory and sub-advisory fees paid in comparison to the advisory and sub-advisory fees charged to other comparable mutual funds, including, in particular, mutual funds acting as underlying investments for insurance products, and other types of comparable accounts; and (d) the fact that the Sub-Advisers are compensated by ICMI and not by the Fund directly and that such compensation reflects an arms-length negotiation between each Sub-Adviser and ICMI. The Directors also considered ICMI and its affiliates’ agreement to waive management and other fees to prevent total fund expenses from exceeding a specified cap and that ICMI, through waivers, have maintained the Penn Series Funds’ net operating expenses at competitive levels for their distribution channel. Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the advisory and sub-advisory fees charged to the Penn Series Funds are reasonable and supported renewal of the Investment Advisory Agreements.

Profitability. With regard to profitability, the Directors considered all compensation flowing, directly or indirectly, to ICMI and the Sub-Advisers and their affiliates, if any, from their relationship with the Penn Series Funds, including any benefits derived or to be derived by ICMI and the Sub-Advisers, such as soft dollar arrangements, as well as the cost of services provided to the Penn Series Funds. The Directors considered whether the varied levels of compensation and profitability under the Investment Advisory Agreements were reasonable and justified in light of the quality of all services rendered to the Penn Series Funds by ICMI and the Sub-Advisers and their affiliates, if any. When considering the profitability of the Sub-Advisers with respect to the sub-advisory services they provide to the Penn Series Funds, the Board took into account the fact that the Sub-Advisers are compensated by ICMI, and not by the Penn Series Funds directly, and such compensation with respect to any Sub-Adviser reflects an arms-length negotiation between the Sub-Adviser and ICMI. Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the profitability of ICMI and the Sub-Advisers is reasonable in relation to the quality of their respective services and supported renewal of the Investment Advisory Agreements.

Economies of Scale. The Directors considered the existence of any economies of scale and whether such economies of scale were passed along to a Penn Series Fund’s shareholders through breakpoints or other means, including any fee waivers by ICMI and its affiliates or the Sub-Advisers. The Board also discussed tiered advisory fee schedules added to many of the Penn Series Funds effective May 1, 2014. Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the Penn Series Funds and their shareholders obtain a reasonable benefit from any economies of scale being realized by ICMI and the Sub-Advisers.

Based on the Directors’ deliberation and their evaluation of the information described above, the Board, including all of the Independent Directors, unanimously approved the continuation of the Investment Advisory Agreements and concluded that the compensation under the Investment Advisory Agreements is fair and reasonable in light of such services and such other matters as the Directors considered to be relevant in the exercise of their reasonable judgment. In the course of their deliberations, the Directors did not identify any particular information that was all-important or controlling.

Item 10. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

The Board of Directors of the Company has a Nominating Committee currently consisting of Mr. Bay, Mr. MacKinlay, Ms. Matthias and Ms. Mack. The principal responsibility of the Nominating Committee is to consider the qualifications of and to nominate qualified individuals to stand for election to the Board. The Nominating Committee has adopted a charter governing its operations. The Nominating Committee would consider nominees recommended by shareholders, if such nominations were submitted in writing and addressed to the Nominating Committee at the Company’s office in conjunction with a shareholder meeting to consider the election of Directors.

The Nominating Committee may adopt from time to time specific, minimum qualifications that the Nominating Committee believes a director candidate must meet before being considered as a candidate. Currently, there are no minimum qualifications set forth by the Nominating Committee other than with respect to an independent director candidate’s independence from the investment advisers and other principal service providers for the Company.


In identifying potential nominees to the Board, the Nominating Committee considers candidates recommended by any of the following sources: (i) the current Directors; (ii) the Company’s officers; (iii) investment advisers to the Funds; (iv) shareholders; and (v) any other source the Nominating Committee deems appropriate. The Nominating Committee will take into account a wide variety of criteria in considering candidates including the following criteria: (i) knowledge in matters relating to the investment company industry; (ii) any experience as a director or senior officer of public companies; (iii) educational background; (iv) reputation for high ethical standards and personal and professional integrity; (v) any specific financial, technical or other expertise and the extent to which such expertise would complement the Board’s existing mix of skills and qualifications; (vi) the perceived ability to contribute to the ongoing functions of the Board; (vii) the ability to qualify as an independent director; and (viii) such other criteria as the Nominating Committee determines to be relevant. The Nominating Committee will consider and evaluate candidates nominated by shareholders on the basis of the same criteria used to consider and evaluate candidates recommended by other sources.
